so it's been exactly 9 weeks since my 2nd LIS. i actually just had to count on the calendar cuz i stopped keeping track. i guess that's what happens after so long! i still think i'm making progress verrrrry slooooowly. the pain is so minimal lately, i definitely don't think about it all day everday anymore. so that's encouraging!!!
i take 1-2 tbsp of MOM almost everyday to keep things soft, along with 3 250mg docusate sodium (stool softener) pills and all the other supplements. i still take 400-600 mg of ibuprofen after bm, along with at least 1 hot bath every day. basically nothing in my routine has changed since the surgery, except i'm a little more leniant in my diet. i'm sure the baths are a little excessive after so long, but it makes me more comfortable and i at least feel like i'm doing something to help it along. i've got my CRS appt in 2 weeks although i doubt she'll have anymore advice to give. i can't believe how ABNORMAL my case is!!!
anyway, so i'm gonna keep up the routine and keep my hopes up as long as it takes :) that's all we can all do i guess.
in other news, i have to have ANOTHER surgery in 2 weeks to remove some problematic fibroids in my uterus. this'll be my 3rd surgery in 9 months. This is JUST NOT MY YEAR!!! i know you all can understand!
