It has been awhile since I posted last. I had surgery this past Monday and I got out of the hospital yesterday. I am not able to walk without a walker until my feeling comes back completely in both legs/feet. It really sucks. The doctor said it is due to the fact that I still have swelling in my back and that as the swelling goes down the nerve will be healing back. I know last time it took about a week after I got out of the hospital to get my feeling back. I have a little more feeling than what I did, but I am able to walk more than what I did in the hospital.
I had one visitor in the hospital that wasn't my husband or one of the employees that was there. They were wanting to keep me until today, but I wasn't a fan of staying in the hospital, even though physical therapy really didn't want me going. I hate not being able to do anything. I get my stitches out on the 28th. I can't wait honestly. They are making my hubby work all kinds of crazy hours and now he really don't have any time with me, they started this crap when they found out I was having surgery and after I had surgery. I still need him home, because I can't go and fix me anything to eat or drink without possibly falling.
I am not allowed to bend or stoop or lift up more than 10lbs. I couldn't do any of that to begin with, but still, it really sucks. My walker does come in handy though, a lot more than what I thought it would. I just wish my house was bigger or roomier so that I can go more places with my walker. I have to get tennis balls for the back of it so that I can bare my weight without it stopping the walker. I dunno what all to talk about. I have so much to say, yet I don't. Craig got off at 2:30 this morning and then they called him in at 9 something for him to be there at 10 and he will work till 10 tonight. He has some darn good overtime hours, but still, they aren't giving a crap about me just getting out of the hospital, no more than I got home from the hospital yesterday he had to go into work and then he didn't get off until 2:30 this morning and he had to be there at 10 am again. This crap is really sucky and I wish they would lay off of him. At least he works 2 more days and then he is off for two days. Technically one day and he works his other job on Tuesday. Anyways, I have ranted enough.
Hope you all have a blessed day!!!
