Status Update: Recovery Day Two
Besides the incisions, which are still healing, I have a few other issues I am dealing with right now.
– It hurts whenever I engage my abdominal muscles even the slightest.
– The carbon dioxide that they pumped into my abdomen is causing an extremely sharp pain under my diaphragm and a dull ache in my shoulder. It hurts like a ninny to lie down.
– I woke up feeling more pain than yesterday.
– Worst of all, my stomach feels bloated and I need to poo, but I can’t. 
That’s my status update for today. Let’s hope the poo thing resolves itself tomorrow or else I’m going to be very grouchy.

hi donna,
i wish i could wave my magic wand and make you all better. i’m sorry that you are so uncomfortable. be patient and don’t try to rush anything. if you can, try to walk (slowly) …that usually will help to ‘poo’. i wonder if your shoulder is sore, because you’re lying ’stiffly’ so not to inflict pain in your tummy? there’s always that handsome massager that you’re married to.(i didn’t use the word ‘masseuse’ because when i checked the spelling in the dictionary.com it stated that it was a ‘woman who gave gives masssage professionally’)
please take care, get healthy and have a calm new year’s eve. the ozoni should taste really good tomorrow !
happy new year to you and your family !
lots of love and healing hugs,
lindy

Donna,
I just read all that you and Hubby are going through. I wish you two guys the best…just said a prayer for both of you. I know this is late…but I hope you are recovering nicely. Take care…
I just wanted to say hi and that I’m praying for you. It appears we are on very much the same journey. Check out my blog and you’ll understand why I say that.
Blessings to you!
Jo
