2 for the price of one I'm sure. How long will you be out of work? Hang in there.

They say a week.

Right now I'm workin' on gettin' outta bed without help.

I know that feeling. 15 years ago I had a disc fussion and the took a bone out of my hip. Yes, it was extremely hard to get out of bed. 8 months ago I had a cracked rip and I made the mistake of lying down. Getting up was probably the worst pain I have had in my life and was I screaming!
The solution was to sleep sitting up on a sofa until the pain was manageable which was about 6 days.

I feel for you!

FL,

Get well soon. In the mean time, keep giving advice, it doesn't weigh anything

Thanks for the well-wishes.

Getting along a little better, moving around the house, still on pain meds...

Recovering from Double Hernia Surgery today.

From lifting too many pork butts.... ;D

Did the same thing year before last. Not fun at all my friend. Just don't push it like dumb me did and ended up in bed and extra week. :o

I'm trying to take it easy. I am fortunate that I can do a large portion of my work from home.

Hey FLBent....don't push it...had a friend who came back to work to soon with one hernia...he tore his inner "screen" Be careful and we'll be here when you feel better! :) Get well...

I had my one-week post-op checkup the other day. Doc says all is good.

Now the hard part. Still taking it easy when you feel better.

Back to work on Monday. I think the Mrs. is ready for me to go back to work.

It has been kinda nice spending two weeks in PJ's....

Glad to hear you are feeling better but try to avoid reinjury just because you feel better. I think most women are happier when the men leave the house. ??? I don't know why...... but they do. ::)
