I do not notice pain at the actual incision site now. I am experiencing muscle tightness through my chest, shoulders and back. Massaging the tight areas seems to help. The incision, itself, seems to be healing fine -- no drainage or heat from the area. Even the bruising around the incision is beginning to fade.
BP 120/73 Pulse 90
Weight 215.4 lbs
Taking medications for pain:
Hydrocodone/APAP 5mg/325mg 1.5 tabs every 4 hrs (1 tab / 4hrs was ineffective)
Ibuprophen 200mg every 4-6 hrs
Slept pretty well last night. Luckily, I woke to go to the bathroom at precisely the time I needed to take a pain med dose. I was able to go right back to sleep. Bea-u-tee-ful!
I'm going to get out for a walk before it starts to heat up outside.
