about all the grossness that is going on with my body since my BA. If anyone has advice that's great..Don't read on unless you can handle subjects that some people consider crass(although we all have problems in this area occasionallu)
So I've had ridiculous pain, STILL since my sx on Friday. My dr expected this and gave more than normal pain killers b/c surgery was an hour longer do to the intense manipulation that was involved. OK, they look great even for not even a week. I've seen swelling pics that were outta this world. So I'm on percs. I've been trying to ween off of them and on to tylenol extra strength. It seems OK during the day, but I can't AT ALL sleep at night comfortably. I'm still not lying down yet, propped up ALL the time. I try to lie flat and BAM right side starts SCREAMING.
I want to get off these pain meds b/c I can not have a BM by myself. I still have no appetite either. I was recommended dulcolax and took 2 on monday. I had 1 bm about 3 hours later...YAY INTESTINES. But then about 30 minutes later raging diarhhea. Umm not good.
Next day I take just one, and lie 12 hours later a very small amount of stool. Also i vomited today for god knows why. Maybe because I ate rich foods, or maybe b/c I didn't take a phenergen. So I felt nauseas most the day. Also, could it be from not having normal bowel function?
So this morning I wake up in agonizing pain. Intense pain on the right, shooting pains in the left. Almost unable to sit up from my already sitting up position. I decide I HAVE to take a perc (It'd been about 10 hours since the last b/c I was taking ex.s. tylenol) So here I am, with a phenergen up my ass waiting for a half hour so I can take a perc. HOWEVER, by placing the suppository my body was like HEY we need to poop (crass I know). So I have this huge bowel movement (so is the phenergen still around?) and now I sit here. Wondering if the percs are going to make me sick, or if i will at least have pain relief and get some sleep.
I'm not proud about what I've posted, I just pray to god someone has some answers. My dr keeps saying wait it out, but I'm miserable![]()
