Hi everyone,
LIS is all done, hooray! I wasn't in theatre till about 19.00 on Friday night, so it's been two full days recovery so far. I spent most of the weekend asleep, which probably did me the world of good!
So far I have had bleeding which has got less as each day passes and I have had soreness, not pain, from the wound. I haven't had ANY fissure pain yet, but that's not to say I won't.
My first few BM's have been fine, the only thing that has hurt is wiping myself, but that's because I am rubbing faeces into an open wound....bound to hurt a bit!
I am keeping the area as clean as possible. I have 4 sitz baths after a BM made with warm water and salt and then sometimes a bath too. It takes a lot of cleaning, but it's very important as my CRS said that infection is my biggest enemy at this stage.
So far so good, but lets see!
Thinking of all of you too.
