Recovery update
I had heard that after the kind of surgery I had that women get hot flashes and emotional right away. That hasn't happened to me. I had maybe one tiny little hot flash and I haven't been especially emotional at all. I wonder when these symptoms will arrive. Not that I'm especially looking forward to them - I'd be perfectly happy if I never got night sweats, for example.
It's almost as though my ovaries were never removed. Of course I know they were :) The pain tells me that.
I am moving around quite a bit more. I was able to walk to and from the grocery store at the corner. I'm not in nearly as much pain as before; all of the pain is focused on one area that's about 4 in x 1 in. The scars are looking good and scabby and they don't really hurt. The one in my bellybutton can be tender, if I rub it the wrong way.

Uh. Don't rub it.
Gee. Betcha she didn't think of that one. Trying to be funny, Victor, or is that actually your best advice?

Glad to hear the pain is lessening somewhat. I hope you're not getting too sick, because that would be very hellish for you right now. Make sure you are taking it very easy.
Love,
Vicki
Victor was trying to be funny. At least, I thought it was funny :)
Actually, that is the best advice I can give. I am so out of my league with this stuff. I can't even imagine what Chantelle is going through. All that I can do is try to make Chantelle laugh once in a while. Looks like I was moderately successful.
All right, all right. My mistake. I mistook Victor for a heartless spammer. I can see now that it was all in good fun. Still not funny to me, but then it isn't my blog. Or my pain. So there you go.
Love,
Vicki
