well my IV is mostly out (needle in arm for another round of antibiotics) but leg compression thingys are on.. yay.

DH and company are at hotel so its nice & quiet... :w00t:

things are pretty good.

I walked again and even gave myself a wash cloth bath..

I'm still really pale, nearly translucent (sp??) haven't hadpain meds since about 3am ish, will get more in a bit.

dr p came in and offered a narcotic shot, I declined.

Lipo bruising is nasty bad, I'm really sore, but nothing too horrid.

I wanted to thank u all again for your support, REALLY appreciate it.

sorry this post is all over the place, I'm just typing as I remember... :huggie:
