thank you guys. i had my appt today and i feel so relieved. he said everything looks normal for 1 week after surgery. i guess i'm just not being patient enough. i knew that, but it's hard during the slow healing process! also, i should've mentioned that i'm not taking the pain pills. i've only been taking iburpofen cuz i'm so scared of constipation, so i've basically been going on raw pain all week. the dr prescribed me some darvocet. i asked for it since i remember reading somewhere that it's less constipating. the dr hates MOM so he really wants me to avoid it. i'm taking mineral oil and stool softeners, and just a little MOM cuz i can't stop it. i'm gonna try taking magnesium pills instead starting today.
oh, ALSO the stupid pharmacy filled the wrong prescription, so i've been putting mupirocen ointment on everyday instead of what the dr intended, which was just plain neosporin!!! he said it probably didn't set me back or anything, but now he wants me using A&D everyday. anyway, i feel more optimistic now and i SOOOO appreciate all of your positive thoughts and support, it helps during those darkest days.
