Hey there, fellow adventurers in the wild world of post-surgery recovery! Let me regale you with tales from the frontlines of battling gas pains that make me feel like I’m pregnant again, but fear not, no bowling balls involved here!
So, picture this: I’m floating after consuming enough caffeine free tea to rival a small lake and enough laxatives to start a revolutionary movement all in the hopes of combatting constipation.
ALSO. Navigating this blog business is proving to be a tad trickier than I anticipated. Apologies in advance for any layout woes – blame it on the post-op brain fog!
But amidst the gas pains and layout struggles, there are bright spots, like finally staying awake through an entire episode of “ A Who Done It” and solving the mystery! Hurrah for small victories, am I right?
Now, onto the emotional rollercoaster fuelled early Menopause, HRT patches and Facebook reels. Is 50mg enough to fend off the waterworks triggered by a piano-playing prodigies followed by strangers belting out a tune? Who knew the tears would flow so freely?
Let’s not forget the never-ending parade of supplements recommended by Dr. Google – because who needs a savings account anyway, right? From vitamins to mood stabilisers, it’s like a daily buffet for my body, complete with unexpected side dishes of fierce “hot flashes” that have me adjusting the thermostat like a mad scientist.
But fear not, for amidst the chaos, there are rays of sunshine in the form of friends dropping by with flowers and texts checking in on my well-being. It’s these small gestures that remind me I’m not alone in this post-op odyssey.
So here’s to navigating the ups and downs of recovery with fun, honesty, and the occasional flood of tears.
Until next time, stay weird, stay wonderful, and stay well-fed caffeine free tea. Viva la Revolution !
