Looking good nicole, even upside down LOL

Jes, so glad you pee pee'd. Yeah, the port hurts alot but I havent taken any pain meds, they make me feel worse. the more I walk around the better it feels. Today is much better than yesterday - to be honest, Tuesday was the worse I felt! I had a shit load of pain in the port area on Tuesday but it was better wednesday and even better today.

Today I went to costco, michaels & the post office - felt good to be outside in the fresh air but it was kinda hot today.

Now for the important questions.... anybody get a rash after surgery? I got a rash on my tummy - not near the incisions but on there - it's red, itchy and reaised up like welts. if it doesn't go down by tomorrow I'm gonna call my PCP.

Oh, nicole - I weighed myself about 30 minutes ago - don't know what posessed me to do it in the evening time but it was 197. I weighed in Monday morning at 201.2 so a little down.

I think I feel my band - whew! I took a sip of Water - just a sip but I had taken a sip right before that and all of a sudden I felt this little pain between my boobs and about and inch down. not fun!

caughing and sneezing sucks just as much as laughing does right now!

Jes, you'll feel better tomorrow - trust me!

Candra, no rash here.. Have you ever been allergic to anything like latex? You are probably just having irritation.. i hope:)

Walking does fix it all:D Oh and breathing..:thumbup:

Yes Tina, we want a pup. I wouldn't mind a cat but we really want a little dog.

I'm anxious for my band and my tiny, straight scars, lol! I want one too!

[Desperate1 1]

i love it when ur right side up!

never been allergic to laytex before. I did use caress soap for the first time ever today. I usually only use Dove but it was empty when i got in the shower so i used my sister in laws caress body wash.... maybe??

[Desperate1 1]

you're so close Heather! But I know that anxious feeling LOL

[smallerj 2]

I don't have any rash but my scars are ugly! and my whole tummy is starting to itch. Candra did you take a shower? Dr Park said I can take a shower on Friday but I think I might wait. When I get up it feels like I going to bust my port hole open. I know I'm a worrier...

[smallerj 2]

gosh I'm sleepy but I know the minute I get in the bed I'll be wide awake

I showered today - but was worried about soap getting in the incisions or the Water hurting as it hit so i kept my back to the shower and let the water run over my shoulders down my tummy hahaha. That's how the port feels, like it's gonna bust op en. Just keep in mind it's the muscle that it's sewn into that hurts - just the muscle! tomorrow i'm gonna call you and make you laugh like you did to me LOL. Seriously, it gets a little better each day from here on out. I felt stiff this morning but as soon as I got up and moving i felt ok. I find that the tylenol and/or the lortab don't make any difference - just that the lortab makes me queezie so I only took each of them once.

just relax in your recliner and if you fall asleep, you fall asleep!

[AudsMom 2]

Lol so glad you love me right side up lol. Hmm might be the wash or the scent in the wash....

Jess your scars will fade. Did you ever take a pic of them? I know chris and i posted ours on here once lol:)

[Desperate1 1]

probably the perfume in the darn soap - Ugh!

Jes, I should probably mention though, that I still can't really bend over so still no panties LOL.. Just dresses - easy to pee!

[smallerj 2]

That's a good idea Im going to post pictures of my scars. Maybe I'll do that now so you all can see.
