Visitors' Stories -- Linda (page 3 of 5): Saturday, 4th day 3/15/03 - Still am hurting, still taking just Tylenol and Benadryl when I go to bed. I want to shower but am just not ready to do so yet. Still eating well, had steak and baked potato tonight, with lots of steamed veggies, still drinking lots of fluids, just water and gatorade and juice. I doze off and on during the day, just sit up on couch and watch TV, I am bored but can't do anything so it really sucks. My thighs really hurt and I am hating the girdle. It really hurts to sit on toilet, my advice to others would be to get a padded toilet seat. I have not had a BM yet, think the Lortab makes you a bit constipated and also your body is trying to get back to its normal homeostasis. When I urinate the flow starts then stops then I continue sitting there and it will begin again, I guess my stomach muscles aren't working just right yet. My girlfriend talked me in to taking a laxative, she went out and bought some kind and I just took one, what a mistake that was. I already felt horrible then at 1:30 in the morning I awoke to the most intensely cramping feeling that lasted for about 6 hours, up and down to bathroom. I felt so awful. Sunday, 5th day 3/16/03 - I started crying today because I am miserable, sick of all this. Wish I had not done any of this, what was I thinking??? Very sore from Lipo, sick of breasts. My boyfriend put a white plastic chair in the shower and said it was time for me to get in there. Today is the 1st day that I have taken the girdle off. Wow, the bruising is not as bad as I anticipated and my body looks great, I have some hard tissue swelling by my bellybutton, stomach is very hard and hurts. I sat in the chair and just let the water run over me, I removed all the Telfa pads from my Lipo sites and also from under my breasts, my boyfriend washed my hair for me and I took the bar of soap and lightly ran it over my body. I got dried off and put the Cypress Oil on all of my bruises, then put the Arnica Gel on top of that, put a little Polysporin on a Telfa pad and taped under my breasts, spread baby powder on my legs and pulled the girdle back on and hooked it back up. I was worn out after this. Monday, 6th day, 3/17/03 - I had planned to go back to work today but there is not way. I do not feel well and am moving very slowly. More of same. Hurts so bad to sit on toilet so I found two pieces of foam rubber in my garage and duct-taped it to my toilet seat, feels so much better. |
