I had no idea a 3 small incisions in my abdominal region could hurt so much! After 4 days of popping Percocet every 4 hours I was finally able to switch to Tylenol. Sasha and I were able to keep our plans and stay with my friend Paul at the Cape Cod house he rented. We went down early Saturday morning and didn’t return until Monday before work. The weather was perfect. It was a much needed mini-vacation.

I had my 1 week post-op visit yesterday at Boston Medical Center. The NP said things look great and I shouldn’t have any problems with it, but I’m still not supposed to lift anything over 20 lbs for 5 more weeks. That’s one instruction I’m probably not going to be able to follow.
