My first day of recovery has gone rather well...all things considered. Almost fainted this morning, not sure what caused it, but it was definitely an experience I won't forget anytime soon. cold, clammy skin, your legs and arms become very weak, nausea, dizziness, then the darkness starts closing in. Luckily my Hubby came to my rescue, and helped me back to bed, and I was fine after I laid down for a bit. I've taken mostly ibuprofen for pain today. The doctor prescribed me loratab and tylenol with codine to take for pain. But honestly I haven't needed it. My foot is a little stiff at times, and a bit sore, occasionally itchy too where the stitches are. And as the meds wear off, it gets progressively more sore, and feels more like a bee has stung my foot. Besides that stayed in bed most of the day, tried to rest as much as possible. I did fold some laundry this morning, also heated up chicken and marinara sauce, and made some pasta for dinner. It was pretty good. My appetite has been missing most of the day. So I've had to force myself to actually eat anything today. Read alot in bed today. Re-reading Joust series by Mercedes Lackey. :) Basically it's Dragons and dragon riders mixed with Egyptian culture. Very good series. I love how it goes into the details of training and such. ^.^ This is probably my 5th or 6th time reading the series. I loves it that much. Anywho, it's time to catch the baby, and get her ready for bed and at the speed I hobble, it might take a few mintues. so TTFN. :)
