August 21, 2018 It’s Been one Week

Oh boy!!!! A week ago today I had my surgery.  And boy what a week it’s been.  Depending on the day sometimes even the hour I’m feeling like I’m doing good, then I’m feeling like I’m not doing as good as I should be.  It’s such a struggle.  Today I woke up pretty sore and really swollen so right off the bat I put ice on the top and bottom of my knee.  We started doing that yesterday after they did it at PT like that.  I like it, I feel like it helps all over.
So aside from waking up sore I hadn’t taken a pain pill since midnight last night.  I’m getting low on them so I am putting off taking them so sure as shit it hit me around noon today.  I went to lay down and have Kev put me on my CPM and just started crying.  I’m hurting but trying to convince myself it doesn’t hurt and ugh....I’m a mess.  I took some meds and am feeling better but I really feel like this week I have been so emotional.  I did call to get a refill of my pills and the nurse was like, you’re out?  And you didn’t think to call sooner?  I felt like saying listen bitch just get me more pain meds.  She proceeded to tell me that no one was in the office and she’d call me tomorrow to let me know if they’ll let me have more and that I should be weaning off them blah blah blah.  Again....bitch just get me more pain meds.  I’m not just taking them to take them I’m trying to keep it from hurting so bad I can’t take it.  Whatever...more tears.
Since today was a week since my surgery I was allowed to take my bandage off.  Alicia and the babies were over so I had her do it.
