I wonder why I had the surgery now since it hurt me more than the issues.
I know some time is needed, but I don't know if I can deal with it, I sneezed earlier, and thought I was going to die.
I'm sure it hurts like hell. Having your chest cracked open and your ribs spread apart and your heart operated on is a huge deal. It's about as serious as it gets...But it will heal. You just have to give it time. How much time I don't know because everyone is different and my chrystal ball is out for repair... :laugh:

What you need right now is rest. When or if do you start rehabilitation? That will help with the healing process and you should start to slowly regain some strength again.

All my best.

I imagine that you feel a bit tender after a surgery like that.

Frosty... keep yourself warm and rested. Renee is right, she would make a good nurse I think. :)

You need someone to come in and make up a teapot with some hot tea, bring in on a tray with two cups and sit with you for a long while. Makes a big difference, that. :rose:

Glad you are back Blue!

I hear you on the pain...trust me that will eventually ease up...I have to remind myself that too...I live thru pain everyday cause of accident, and like you...the pain will eventually go away.

I too also saw crazy things after my surgery...I even went somewhere, cause I did die for a moment there...kinda hard to leave my brain...I did see about 1 week after surgeries...a large white wolf came to me, it was beautiful and so breath taking...like I swear it wasn't even a hallucination....I have decided to get a tattoo of a white wolf....im just looking into styles and body placement.

Take it easy and give yourself time to heal...it's fusterating...bit it will get better :thumbsup:

That was probably me. If it was an extremely White Wolf, that was probably my presence at Royal Columbian during your difficult time there... My presence reaches far and wide, and does good things for good people!

This. I cracked one rib slipping on the ice while working on my truck, and it took weeks for that to finally heal up... Doctors can't do anything for ribs... They simply have to heal on their own, and that can take a while...

Well I'm back home again, I had a few more days in the hospital.
My pulse dropped to 23, and oxygen down to 54.
Right now I'm hurting, and bruised up barely breathing, but I'm still here.

Please hang in there. It will get better.

Rest, sleep. It's one day at a time.

Three days. :( Frosty, make sure you have some liquids at least.
I'll check in later alright. I hope you've gotten some sleep since you got home. :flower:

Heard a weird noise outside tonight, a loud scraping noise...it was one of the neighbours driving along the road and into the carpark... it was dark but sounded like his exhaust was hanging off the back of his car. :kez:

My legs are crampy. This using your muscles again after a long time actually hurts! I'm not complaining...I'm just saying it like it is. Stay safe and don't break any bones..

Liquids are the least of my issues, I got them a lot through a bag.
I kept them getting me ice also. in the hospital it was a blessing over the warm water they left for you.

I just got home from an appointment, my evil belly monster was just all show, malign.
It was an angry looking thing, pretty nasty horror show, but mostly show.

Oh that's hard to deal with, I get them also all over the place, especially my back.
the early morning ones when asleep seems to be the worst for me.

Belly monster? Did you poop?

My legs are bit better today...I have an appointment (coming to my place) and after that I'm going back to sleep. I've been super sleepy for 3 days now. I never know when I'm gonna be up and about or sleepy?

Hope everything is well on your end.

That's excellent news about your stomach. You see, there is at least one piece of good news.

Take your recovery one step at a time. You will come through this.

I had surgery on my stomach after they gave me all those pills, and started bleeding out.
I had a cluster of ulcers that looked a tar monster, one bleeding pretty badly.
They cut them out, and burned them also.
I believe they have not healed so good since I'm still bleeding a bit.

The doctor today said keep an eye on things, and if it changes let them know.

It would be good if the setbacks didn't keep piling up on me, like now I can't sleep for the pain, and have to get up early for another appointment.

As I said, it's one step at a time. The healing process will be long... But I will warn you to stay away from pain meds as much as possible. They are addicting and they are poison.

I think right now you need to just try to relax. Maybe try some meditation and develop some inner peace. I know that sounds hokey and it's easier said than done but if you can manage it, it will help.

Good luck with your appointment today.
