And for the most part, I'm feeling pretty good!
I had my two week post op appointment yesterday. I was *Suppose* to have my stitches out....but the bottom portion of the incision hasn't healed enough. Dr said he 'could' take them out, but then I'd kick him and he'd rather not have that happen.
But he said it looks good. MOST get the stitches out at two weeks, but it's not uncommon to go three. He could tell I hadn't 'babied' it like.....well I should have. Dude, I have four kids....gimmie a break.
He was cool with it though. Just told me Hey it's on me and 'Maaaaaaaaaaybe had I babied it I could have had my stitches out' yesterday.
I'm a lousy patient. LOL Oh well....I try I really do.....but I'm also (shocker) Stubborn as a mule....and....incase anyone missed the memo, I do have four kids.....So....Yep. Stay off it 100%?....Uhhh....no.....
He noticed I changed the bandage too. Which he said was fine. I had accidentally gotten it wet (Slipped) in the bath....so....I really had no choice.
Because the ace bandage is starting to really annoy me, especially at night, last night I tried going with out. Figured the gauze roll would hold well enough. Eh....guess I won't do that again, A good portion had come unraveled. Or maybe I'll tape it up better. It was very refreshing to not sleep with that on......
So....until next wednesday, Frankenfoot and I are just gonna hang......
