Dear Urine Receptacle,
AHah! Did you notice what I did there?
I'm thinking that your feeling unloved as the last 5 years of my life has been very uterine-centric. So this one is for you Bladder-face.
Please stop being a jerk.
In all seriousness-- later today is 2 weeks since the surgery. I was able to stop taking my heavy pain killers about a week after surgery. I was moving and sitting a lot better. In the past 3 or 4 days however, I'm hurting a lot. I'm guessing it's because it's all starting to heal, and maybe the internal stitches are breaking down a bit.
I took my catheter out (did I mention that last time) on the morning of the 19th. The next day I had my stitches out.
The next day I called the doctor back because my wonderful little "problem" was still there. They said not to be discouraged yet because I'm still healing. So I'm trying to think positive, but I can't help but thinking that every day it should get a little bit better if it's just because the bladder is healing, right?
I really wanted this all to be behind me so I can feel like I'm coming up on the more positive side of this entire thing, and it hasn't yet.
Help me out of this hole!
