Honest Hernia Recovery

I am in pain.

My shoulders and neck are so sore.

And my stomach is very sore.

I have had 3 naps today.

I have eaten half a chai, some eggs, a small bowl of grapes, some pasta, and some donut.

I was really hoping I’d be reading more but even focusing on that feels so hard.

I’ve been taking oxytocin to manage the pain but had to start adding ibuprofen for headaches (which I guess can be caused from the oxytocin but I need it to manage my stomach pain).

The doctor said this will last 3-4 days and I’m hoping he’s right.
