Yesterday was very busy--ended up having two overnight guests! So I didn't have time to post. But despite the busy day, staying up very late and getting only 6 hours of sleep, I woke up feeling quite strong in my core--like my old self at moments.
I'm hoping to get positive feedback on my recovery so far at today's appointment. I will also ask about what my body is going through at this point in the healing process, so I can be in tune to that--especially if I decide to start work back in the office on Monday.
Questions for today:
- How much was my uterus cut open to get the fibroid out, and how was it stitched back together?
- What about the surgery/post-surgery caused me to add so much initial weight?
- I'm still having some piercing pangs from trapped gas. Normal?
- What are the occasional internal pains in the lower right and left of my pelvis?
I'm sure there will be more, but these are currently on my mind.
My surgeon is also a regular practicing Ob/Gyn, so I may ask if she is accepting new patients. I've loved her since day one, and after going through something so...intimate, it might be nice to build on that doctor/patient relationship if it's an option. We will see.
Wish me luck!
