It's good to hear that you still have your sense of humour. Baby steps, K, there is nothing worse than lying around unless it is getting up before you should (take that from someone who knows) Getting the catheter out will improve life--bloody horrible things--but they serve a purpose when getting in and out of bed isn't an option.

xxx - Lol to the brekky! No matter how crook we are, food, even if you're not able to eat much makes you feel good
Take care - Hey @kmakm glad to see you on the other side! you seem to be really well considering. I too had low BP and I had no pain meds as was too sensitive to many of them. Was so hard going honestly! Endone just made me sick and youre right, the cycle of it all drives you nuts. I'll talk more in your post in Breast Recon. xx hang in there, slowly...the first week is the toughest...I was sent home day 3 and could barely walk. Day at a time xxx
- Pain got worse yesterday, as did my blood pressure. The drugs they give you for pain tend to reduce bp so we got into a vicious circle. Eventually the pain, like red hot pokers in my belly, drove my bp up enough that they gave me 5mgs of morphine. That took the edge off but nothing more. So then they gave me 7.5mgs of morphine and that was fantastic! Haven't needed it since.
However my bp is still really low so a pathology team is about to come round to draw blood and see if it's a haemoglobin problem.
I'm desperate to get up and moving, get the catheter out, shower & use the loo. Depending on the blood tests a physio should be round to teach me how to move. All this should have happened yesterday. This low bp problem has been the bane of my existence since chemo started in January. Gargh!
Still, the foobs look good and I have a flat belly. All healing well on that front.
The wifi is excellent and the food's good here too. Brekkie. Smashed avo & fetta on sourdough: - Hoping today is an easier day and one step further in recovery and to going home to your family.XO
- How lovely hope everything went well adean xx made me remember endone.post surgery l was apparently demanding rissoto and told them l was on masterchef!
