Good morning all you lovely peeps! Post Op day 2. Ice packs, pain med, water, Oh My! It's going great here and yesterday DH had a visit from a nurse who was following up on his PCP's increase in Metformin. It's through his insurance and I think it's great. That nurse was a Godsend. Not only was he caring and compassionate, but he went above and beyond the call of duty and helped me remove the boot, it has to be removed once a day to examine the dressing and make sure there is no bleeding, drainage with a foul odor, etc. He helped me put the boot back on and I was so thankful he was here to do that. He also went to our Pharmacy to pick up a Rx for DH and that was really above and beyond. I sent a very positive email to his boss. Great Nurse!
We are sleeping in the same pattern now and DH is down to one pain pill every 4 hrs. Yes, we had bkfst at 4 am again. I feel as if I'll be losing weight cuz I'm constantly busy when he is awake. Oh, btw, yesterday morning I stumbled on the threshold and it hurt so bad, but when the pain stopped I felt like something was adjusted in my Sciatic leg. Maybe an adjustment is what I need. I have the number for a good Chiropractor. There is hope.
I am glad we practiced the pivoting before the Sx. He is doing well with all the maneuvers. Gotta go! Peace & Plenty.
