Day 2 ❤️‍🩹 after surgery

2024/8/9 Edited to

... Read moreNavigating recovery after surgery is a journey filled with ups and downs. On Day 2 post-surgery, it's essential to focus on hydration, nutrition, and rest. Many find that incorporating gentle stretching activities can aid in healing and increase circulation. It's also important to listen to your body and communicate with your healthcare provider regarding any concerns. Day 2 can often be a mix of emotions—relief and anxiety as the body starts to heal. Engaging with support groups, either online or in-person, can be incredibly beneficial. Sharing experiences with others who are going through similar recovery processes provides emotional relief and can expose you to new strategies for managing pain and discomfort. Creating a comfortable recovery environment at home can significantly impact how you feel during this period. Comfortable seating, access to hydration, and easily prepared meals can all reduce stress. Remember, every recovery journey is unique, and it’s crucial to celebrate small victories along the way. Identifying what helps you feel supported can make a world of difference as you transition through these early days of healing.

Does anyone else get fentanyl after surgery?
Before my procedure, I specifically told the doctors and nurses, “Please don’t give me fentanyl. I react badly to it.” I must have repeated it three times. But sure enough, right after surgery, I wake up feeling absolutely awful, dizzy, nauseous, heart racing, and like my body didn’t know what to d
