Post-Surgery Week One


So, I had the myomectomy and I'm now at Day 6 of recovery. I was surprised to find that contrary to what I was taught in biology class everything is attached to your abs! Many things are a challenge, walking upright being one of them! Hey, right now I'd settle for homo habilis posture.

A few other things that are still difficult
  • Standing in one place for an extended period of time ie. washing dishes (Don't do it!)
  • Walking a greater distance than to the end of your average neighborhood driveway
  • Laughing (not saying "don't do it" though)

  • Coughing (I love the flowers people sent but my allergies don't)

  • Sneezing (ditto, above)
  • Getting up from a reclining position
