In a lot of respects, last week was harder than the first week after surgery (2nd week after surgery).
I thought taking the day off after the doctor took the bandage off was a bit silly, but it ended up saving my rear….
Even today was a bit interesting on what I could and couldn’t do. Reaching and picking things up was not a good thing to do. Didn’t hurt WHILE I was doing that, but after sure did.
Went shopping (got a GREAT bargain — a 9 can cooler that works on 12 volts DC — perfect for keeping insulin in). Pushing the cart around did me in — again, not right away, but added up in a hurry.
I missed quite a few days at the gym and when I was there, couldn’t do much for the pain.
Man that sure makes a difference on how much insulin I use. I jumped up to 32 units, as was running high, and still added another 15 units of last acting. WEIRD!
