7-3-09 morning progress


Still some soreness at the site, my back is a bit less sore today , no drainage, no warmth from site

Just noticed I can not remember the last time I was short of breath

BP 119/72 Pulse 94
Weight 217.0 lbs

Taking pain medications:
Hydrocodone/APAP 5mg/325mg 2 tabs every 4 hrs (going to try 1 every 4 hrs)
Ibuprophen 200mg every 4-6 hrs
3:30 pm Update: With 1 Hydrocodone, I can definitely feel more pain but it is not unbearable.

Going to increase the amount of walking I do today. My digestive system seems to be returning to its normal function.

Sleeping exclusively on my back is a challenge. I have to pillow myself into a position so I will not turn during the night as I usually do. I do not want to crack the breast bone as it is healing.
