I am so bad at being not well. Follow up is 1 month after surgery.

Stopping the pain meds was a good idea. Made me much more aware of when I was overdoing it.

I'll try doing gentle stretches throughout the day. Maybe just being in a multitude of positions will help, even if they aren't strenuous.

:D Yeah--you kinda go stir crazy. What you don't want to happen is adhesions.....(not to mention popping an internal stitch) that's why it's best to keep to walking and changing positions (carefully) right now. I learned this the hard way after my c-section. I was much younger and bounced back rather quickly.....mowed the lawn after 3 weeks :ph34r: .....guess what I developed? :P

After my 5 week follow-up (this time), I was cleared to do almost everything--so be patient and be a good patient :lol:

SILLIES - - I have been working out SO HARD at the gym - I think i've.......torn things..... :unsure: am in SO much pain adn too old for this sort of activity............shoulder/hip/back - what in hell? it didn't USED to hurt this much when I worked out........... :angry: getting old SUCKS!

Gawd, ain't it the truf! <_<

Think I'd be slowly backing toward the door if upon entering I saw metal stirrups affixed to his chest freezer........ . . . . ... :o:lol:

I've written 5 weeks of sick leave, but I'm set up to work from home, so I can extend that by doing part time from home, if I need to. Any longer than 5 weeks and it's my vacation time and heaven forbid I use that for lollygagging and not traveling.

A bit of cute for you.

Since I'm home, I've been leaving the door open so the cats can go out. Max doesn't go much farther than the porch, and Lefty doesn't really leave the yard, although he is fascinated with the green space behind my house. If I haven't seen Lefty for a while I'll go out and call him. He always comes running, and he seems to think that I'm calling him because I need his comfort. He runs up to me, stands up, puts one paw on my knee, and reaches the other up to be picked up.

It is unbelievably adorable.

Hi everyone

. ....what day is it already?

I guess my brain's coming around a little . ...but still SO far from silly.

And been too tired to even make dinner sometimes.

Yesterday, at a lab for a blood draw (4th visit to do what should've been done in one visit - thyroid & CBC), I'm so ***** stupid, I forgot my own zipcode.

Far cry from the wordplay & perma-smile of days gone by. :(

When I'm incapable of laughter, or even an amused smile, it's .. .. ..argh depressing isn't quite the word . .. .irksome? .. ... maddening? . .. ..well it's just not fun to read the silly.

If I lost my sense of taste, would I bother seeking out favorite foods?

I can't tell if I'll EVER have as much fun conversing as I had every day of those 5 or 6 months last year.

Maybe I'll try to catch up late at night - brain sometimes a little better then.

HI, PTAOUGHMHGMN!! :):)

Um......doesn't everyone forget their postal codes on occasion?? :unsure::huh:

That is a great comparative question, Ptaoughmghmn....I'm sure the answer would be NO, that you wouldn't be craving or even interested in delicious food were your taste gone. So, it's understandable that you have no desire to come into Sillyville when nuttin' seems phunny to ya....... .. . We understand, and hope that your true Silliness resurfaces and has us cackling away post after post. We've missed you! .. ...Sounds like you've been missing yourself. :)

I wanna Lefty!! :wub:

:lol: thought you'd like that one.......my, quite the house full, Beaverly! Angus must be so happy :)

and why in hell did you tell me about those goat lotions? You KNOW how tortured I am when I see something yummy and can't smell it............ :huh:

Oh Tom. :( This sounds like true depression and.......maybe something else is biologically wrong? I hope the blood work will reveal something.....I think help is needed. Sending a package your way. ;)

So, went to my doc's house. :huh::lol:

I did not have to crawl upon his freezer, as he doesn't do that kind of examination....just eyes, reflexes, BP, etc. It's more talking.... .a LOT of talking, going over blood sugar levels, trends and patterns, meds.....essentially, my life in an hour. His house is 100 years old, a huge, sprawling, gabled stone manse. I'm glad I did not have to do window duty....just too many of them. And I did hear a clothes dryer going in the background, so I kept wondering if I was going to have some folding to do.....

Ironing?? Bah! This I would refuse............

:rolleyes:

Gah! Thank gawd, I have superb BP....today it was 112 over 76, as per usual. Something, something, I don't have to worry about......!!

He did have to go and get his BP monitor from the kitchen, where his teenaged son and buddies were seeing how much, and how quickly, their numbers would go up after each successive espresso was pounded back.......

And.....he needed to renew my Eltroxin prescription, and could not find his scrip pad anywhere in his office. I'm quietly starting to wonder about that teenaged son of his, when his wife opens the office door and places the pad on his desk - - she'd used it to jot down phone numbers and appointment times while doing the reception work...... .. . . . . ..

It is an interesting atmosphere in which to be... . . . .. :huh::rolleyes:

      When my wife attempted to open the online card in the store with a cashier, it would not work. We then showed the owner the link to the card, the online receipt that I got upon purchase, and even my bank statement confirming the purchase. That did not satisfy her, since she said she needed the link to open to reveal the gift ID num. They even admitted they...

      We were flabergasted that the owner would not acknowledge a $50 e-gift card I purchased for my celiac wife. My wife tried to open it in the store and was informed there had been a system change and they could not find the record. No worries, she was told, just talk to management. Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally...

In other words, she accused me of lying and committing fraud... over $50! Please be careful with your orders and purchases here.

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can damage the stomach lining if you eat it too often. Especially if your stomach lining is already compromised. Ibuprofen inhibits the body's ability to rebuild the stomach's protective mucosal lining. That's why it can cause peptic ulcers. As strange as it may sound, low level irritation/inflammation stimulates the body to rebuild the stomach lining. There are two steps in this rebuilding process known as COX 1 and COX 2. Ibuprofen represses both COX 1 and COX 2. Celecoxcib, a prescription anti inflammatory, inhibits only COX 2, making it less likely to cause damage to the gut lining.

I'm fairly new to this. Whatever is going on seems to be worsening  Do people get a withdrawal effect from gluten?  It's extremely painful 😖  I'll post that question or research on the site  Thank you everyone for responding
