I have a lot of pain but it’s different…. it’s surgical pain and muscular pain & whilst it’s very severe & requiring a lot of strong medication I know it will lesson as I heal! 😁🤞🏻
I have dissolvable stitches so they won’t need removed- a relief when there are soooo many!🙈
Here’s a photo of my incision, and one of me sitting up tonight- I only sat up for about 10 minutes in the bed & I’ve been turning onto my side for all my meals and giving my incision a break from the pressure of lying on it…. so here’s a photo of that too!
