TGIF!!!
Today is Friday morning. I had a rough night. My left incision is hurting very badly and any time I move I feel a sharp/pinching pain. The numbness throughout my groin, legs, and feet while sitting has progressively become worse. My right hamstring continues to twitch involuntarily, which is started to concern me. While my inner thigh pain is decreasing, I am still extremely sore in my lower abdomen. I've noticed that if I lay or sit for too long, I get too stiff. Even though I'm in a ton of pain, I try to keep walking and moving.
Through much discomfort, I walked my treadmill mile last evening. I was too sore to do anymore of my exercises, so I took it easy. This morning, I walked TWO miles on the treadmill and now can barley move! However, the doctor's keep telling me to "not stop moving."
I'm about to head to PT and will see Dr. Poor about "where I'm at." I am looking forward to a low-key afternoon and to see Douglas for dinner tonight.
I'm still on track to drive back home tomorrow morning, so fingers crossed that will happen. While I won't be able to move back into my apartment for another week, I'm excited to be in a "home." Hotel life is great while on vacation, but not so much when you're recovering from a major surgery...
With Love,
Ash xx
