Usually I can tell when a surgical incision is healing because it starts to itch all around the surface. I can't feel that now. Is it not healing? Is it just that the area is numb?
Can't wait to go to the doctor and see what's under there. I'm curious as a kitten. I'll take a picture.
Two people told me that they're surprised I'm following doctor's orders and not unwrapping the dressings myself. I was insulted. [um, edited to spare you a rant.]
Wow, there was more under that emotion-scab than I thought. Anyhoo. I'm very curious about what my incisions look like and how well they're healing. Hopefully the surgeon will unwrap and inspect them tomorrow morning and I'll get to see.

My worst problem, Thursday and Friday, was the transition from fully-clothed-on-hands-and-knees to seated-on-the-throne-and-ready. Move the shorts BEFORE getting up (thus tying knees together, CJ fall down, oops) or AFTER (need two hands to lift up my weight, then have to move the clothing via telekinesis)? That was a toughie. I learned that while crawling was faster and easier and more stable and less painful, still it was better to get into the bathroom on crutches. Thank goodness by Saturday I could stand up pretty well.
