My lasgna in particular is great, even if its annoying and time consuming to make. I’ve made a point of improving my stir frys because they’re quick to make and have lots of veges in them!
Getting up to date
Apart from the usual stuff, like going to work, I’ve been trying to get on top of things. Doing little cleaning jobs here and there, trykng to get more exercise, stuff like that. I’ve been aiming to do 2 to 3 smaller extra “jobs” or 1 bigger one each day. I do try to follow the “No zero days” thing, do all the absolute essentials each day, and try to do a few extra things each and every day on top of that.
That I’m always in pain now
I’ve been having on going complications from the surgeries I had to have, and I’ve had constant lingering pain in certain areas. I worry about the amount of pain medication I need, so I iften don’t take it.
Day after
I had the surgery yesterday and things seem to be going really well! I should be going home sometime today, I just need things like the drain to be taken out and I’ll be all set. Have had the pharmist come to see me with my medication.
Surgery tomorrow
I have to be at the hospital tomorrow at 8am and the surgery itself should only take 2 hours. I’m not sure when the surgery is due to start , (9amish?), as I do have yo check in and do the usual getting weighed and my height measured first of course.
I am quite anxious about it, but not as bad as before my operation last year! At least I’m not on a blood thinner this year and the operation isn’t as big as last years one was. Depending on how things go I should be out and back home either on Tuesday or Wednesday. (I am definitly spending the night in hospital tomorrow).
Starbucks
The steak & cheese pies at starbucks are actually really nice! Profoundly nicer than I had been expecting admittly! Bit light on the amount of meat, but zero gristle, and it had a large nice pot of tomato sauce with it too. The coffee is as expected though ☹️
I only went due to getting a $20 gift card for them…
Appoitment
I have my first appoutment with the general surgeon about my hernia tomorrow morning. I’m not looking forward to it and am starting to become quite anxious about it now! Hopefully the whole process will be quick and before I know it the surgery itself is done and behind me!!
Hernia
I’ve been to my doctor and it is a hernia unfortuntly. I’ve been reffered to a general surgon to get it fixed, which won’t be a major surgery like my one last year at least!!
Hernia :(
It looks like I have a hernia in the area I had my surgery last year. I have a doctors appointment for it on Monday which is the first I could with my main doctor. I’m not happy about this at all obviously but would be even more annoyed if I have to have another surgery to correct it!
