Good and bad days
The pain meds are gone now and the healing continues. Yesterday there was much less pain and the incision from the colon surgery is filling in better. Today was a rough day. I know the colon is healing but I have a really nasty pain in the right lower quadrant where the colon was pulled over to be reattached. During the microscope tissue lab I managed to stagger around and help the groups; I was exhausted at the end of the day and took a long nap when I got home. I took the last two Loratabs, which relieved much of the pain. I will sure be glad when this healing stuff is complete and I can feel normal again.
The rosacea is holding about the same. My forehead and nose are very dry and pink now so I've been using lots of moisturizer with little improvement. Cold weather is not good for Rosacea.
