Sunday 5/14/06 - 41 Days Post Surgery

7am: I slept better. At the recommendation of Dr. Donna, who had the same surgery 3 weeks after I did, I took the equivalent of prescription strength ibuprophen 3 times and that seems to have done the trick. I did wake up in a fog this morning. It's from the Percocet I think, so I'm going to switch to Tylenol PM at night and see how that works for me. My incision is still burning, but not as much as yesterday.


5pm: Happy Mother's Day. We went for a drive in the morning. At 1pm I was exhausted again and slept for 3 hours. I feel sleep deprived.


9pm: I've been low key since I woke up from my nap. I walked around the complex without my cane. There's no pain, but I ready for sleep again.
