I'm doing okay, I guess. I am now almost three weeks out from my surgery, and looking forward to getting to the mushy stage of the diet. liquid hydrocodone was my best friend for the first 10 days or so, and now I love me some liquid Tylenol. They don't sell the extra-strength liquid Tylenol in the stores or pharmacies around here, so I had to order it online. My stomach has been hurting really bad the last week or so- it feels like the kind of stomach ache you get right before you throw up. I've also been struggling with feeling queasy after I drink something, but the worst thing is definitely the stomach ache. I went to the ER last week about it, and they did a CT scan and said everything looked normal, and gave me fluids (which helped sooo much with the queasiness...). That's about all I can think of right now for an update.

Prayers for good health to all!
