The surgical glue that was holding my incisions together is flaking off. The pain has gotten to a point where I can decrease the narcotics. I now take ibuprofen (600mg) every other third hour instead of a dose of narcotics. As for the rest of healing. I feel a low level of sore all the time. This is the sort of pain I can ignore with a bit of distraction. However, if I am up and moving about for more than 10 minutes, the pain catches up with me in the form of being tired.
I could use some company this week. My mom has gone in for her final surgery to her port-a-cath tomorrow. So she will not be able to visit me for a few days while she does her recovery. Mom has been my lifeline throughout the last couple of weeks She filled in the gaps between visits from other people.
Jerry C will be visiting around dinner tomorrow, but that is the only person scheduled this week. I hope others will be able to visit.
