My appointment at the surgeon's office today was....weird. Par for the course, huh? Still having pain when i try and lay down, or when i cough or sneeze or yawn. Apparently, my CT scan came back pretty clean. My diaphragm is swollen and bruised, thus the pain, and I even got PCOS cysts that showed up. Nice to know that's still with me **rolls eyes**....
My surgeon is awesome. He wrote out more Rx's for pain meds and a series of steroids to get the swelling down. He also fought the insurance company so they would cover my Rx for chewable acid reducers. Yay! I did get a talking to about not taking my pain meds enough and trying to do too much too soon. Apparently he thinks I'm trying to be SuperWoman... **shrugs**
I told him the pain was getting better, but it still made me have Torette's Syndrome when I sneeze. Through no choice of my own, now when I sneeze I also throw out a curse word. Yeah, it hurts that much
Soooo.... more meds and less activity for me. No return to work date yet, which is good since I haven't even been approved for disability since 6/26 when the complications started. I miss getting paid. The bills are becoming a bit stressful. MetLife is supposed to make their grand decision today... **fingers crossed**
