Back To Work Today



Recommended Posts

4 weeks post op and went back to work at my 12 hour shift. It was a very rough day to say the least but my body didn't feel like it while I was doing my job. Now that I'm home I'm miserable and having sharp pains pretty consistently in my back and stomach. I thought it might be Constipation so took some MOM and it helped pass some stuff but hasn't helped with the sharp pains. Anyone have any similar thing happen when going back to work? Otherwise I've been pretty textbook I think. Don't want to call my dr unnecessarily but probably will if it doesn't stop in the next 2 hours. I'm due back at work at 5:30 am and really can't afford to miss.

Well for anyone who might have read the original post, I had cramps on my right side into my back all night. Finally went to sleep after 1 am but my hubby said I was cringing and moaning in my sleep. Dr ordered tests that came back normal so he seems to think Im having muscle spasms and has me off work until Monday. I looked up muscle spasms and they can be caused by dehydration so be careful to get your liquid in. These sharp pains aren't fun.

I've been getting in about 2 bottles of Water a day on a good day and a Protein Shake. Most days I get my Vitamins in.
