Well, almost a week down and I'm optimistic it will get better. I have a huge painful hematoma around my incision on the left that has caused a lot of extra pain. I've helps a lot. I have had a hard time drinking but was able to them drink 60 oz yesterday. Yay! The funniest part of this all is that I've gained 25 pounds since surgery! My body is so packed full of water that it hurts to bend. 

Hope all is going well. I'm excited to be on the loser's bench, but please don't kick me off for gaining 25 pounds!

 

edit: please forgive the typos! I have anesthesia brain still

I'm so sorry you are in pain.  Don't worry about the water weight, you will lose it. Good luck with your recovery and I hope you feel better soon.
