Well i just went and read more of my posts and relized that my tummy caused me to have a set back and a long one. Now that the tummy is better I can rest up and get strong. My unpacking is coming along in great fashion. I do need to start driving. I am still concerned about all the pain medicane I need. I was so tired last night so I went to bed early and ended up waking up and really hurting. Well that is the way it goes. Now that my apartment is starting to take place I feel less nerves and feel now things will fall in place. I have been thinking about a new car, this is really ruff for me but will keep going. i need to get on the road again big time. Everyone do take care and do stay safe with weather. :doggieshmooze:Tashia:loll:
 
I got upset last night and my tummy is tender so my feeling that the tummy is reacting to my nerves. I don't know is anyone else has this but I thought I would mention this. My pain level is lower than before. If I am very active I end up hurting that night. So I do think I am getting much better. Good day so far. Everyone take care.:doggieshmooze:Tashia:loll:
 
Tashia, I had the same nervous tummy for many years. It would interfere with everything in my life. Was on medication and really wasn't living life. But over the years I found that keeping busy, getting more active and getting out with friends was the best medicine.

You have been through a lot. As my doctor used to say - me stomach was the area of my body that absorbed all the stresses in life. Baby steps to things settling I am sure. Take care!
 
Jaycey, You are so right, thats why I am on the site so much to try to keep busy. My bathroom who had a leak has been stopped and the ceiling is now being closed so I can get my apartment back. Also my closet has also been fixed so now I feel I can get busy again. Does anyone have a Hybird car. I an thinking about one and if anyone has information on them I would liked to hear it. Maybe I need to learn to spell it. I hope you know what I mean. Getting some wheels will get me out of the apartment. I did get my new inserts today. Oh they feel so good. :yay: My pain is getting almost no exsistance in my hip.:yes 4:Not saying I won't have some ruff moments. Yes , Yes, Now the knees. My foot doctor things that my knees will get better as I wear the inserts. I sure hope so. I can't believe how good I feel. I truly feel I did a big turn around. My stomach does need to be worked with but I need to get things in order and I'm sure it will calm down. Getting rid of all the boxes will help so much. My sewing room is also coming together. I need to get off line and make a appointment for the left knee and see whats going on.Everyone please take care and stay safe. :doggieshmooze:Tashia:yes 4:
 
Hi Tashia,

Wow, sounds like you have really turned some corners, isn't it great? Glad you got your inserts, I am breaking in new sneakers for now and they feel good. Good luck with the car, that should make a huge difference for you...getting out more. Hoping since you haven't posted tonight that you are SLEEPING really well. :sleep:
 
dianemarie I have been doing house work. As you know it is never done. However I am getting ready to go to bed. Had a very big day today.Well my dryer just went off. I bet my people that live around me are happy. Is around two now I can go to bed.:doggieshmooze:Tashia:friends:
 
Didn't sleep as well as I though I would but that is ok. Very busy day getting the place in order. Have to be careful not to overdue it. Everyone have a good Saturday and stay safe. :doggieshmooze:Tashia:loll:
 
Had a wonderful day. Went to a quilt show. It was so good to be among people. Got some new patterns that will make unbeivable quilts. Knees are hurting. When I say hurting they are complaining about all the walking. I walked over a hour without needing to sit down. I have made a complete turn around. In fact I wasn't that tired so WOW I am close to the finish line. I know I will have some painful days but know I will need to get rid of the pain pills so I can be totally free. I do know this will be a challenge but thats what recover is all about. Well thats enough from me everyone take care and be careful with the weather. :doggieshmooze:Tashia:friends:
 
Wonderful news Tash :)

Love the idea of new quilts, you will have to Lear how to post pictures of them when finished, lots of love xoxoxoxox
 
Hi Tashia
I am so glad that you had a good day yesterday. Things are looking so much better for you. It is good to keep busy and do things you like to do.
I hope you slept well and have a great Sunday.
The sun is shining here at my place. Supposed to rain tonight again though. I will spent my time outside and maybe brush the horses. They sure need it with all the mud around.
Take care
Bea
 
Bea we also had some rain. I think we are to have it every day this week. We do need it so I will put up with it. Really what can we do but put up with it. Today is my daughter birthday. She will be 43. Doesn't seem possible. But as we get old so do our children. Have a good time with the horses. But do take care with all that mud. :doggieshmooze:Tashia:friends:
 
Today during washing most of the day trying to catch up to doing cleaning. This work is never done. Have paced myself so I think I am ok. My knees are tender and score. My knees aren't to swallow so maybe the worse is over. However the left knee maybe is getting bad but I am not ready to have it cut on. I must get my tummy more calm down and get more strength. I also need to get my apartment done completly. I also need to get my car and start getting off my pain meds. I did tonight take less and so far so good. Remember every day puts you one day close to full recovery. :doggieshmooze::Tashia:friends:
 
Thanks for the lovely long email Tash, I love hearing from you.

You are such a treasure :) and you are providing fantastic support to members, both hips and knees.. You have had both experiences.

Sending much love and hugs xx
 
Thanks , I really needed it tonight. Feeling down maybe I have over done it. :doggieshmooze:Tashia:friends:

Today is another today and feeling better. Doing more house work but trying to pace myself; My pain medicane is still needed which I find a little disappointing to say the least. I have gotten it so I am pretty much pain free. The only problem I have is after I am sitting or after a walk and I sit down, When I get up my knees are stiff and score. Not much and after a couple of steps they are better. Does anyone have this. Nothing from the Hip replacement side. :yay: Everyone take care and safe. Remember every day puts you one day closer to full recover. :doggieshmooze:Tashia:friends:
 
:feedback:After the surgery of the knee and hip I had a very bad rash. I thought it was what they gave me for infection now I wonder if it was a reaction to the saddle block. Has anyone had this reaction? The first surgery was the knee and it was bad but in a couple of days it was gone. The second was really nasty with the hip. I can't remember anything for a couple of days after surgrey, they really keep me out, I guess it was to make sure I was not rub the horrible rash. I mean it was really nasty. What is a reaction of a saddle block? I have looked it up and nothing said about a rash. While I am concerned I am getting close to having to see the surgeon for the left knee to be replaced. I am really concered. Everyone take care and stay safe. Remember every day puts you closer to full recovery. :doggieshmooze:Tashia:friends:
 
Tashia, it's pretty hard to say exactly what caused the rash at this point. Please try not to worry about it. Those little rashes happen and your medical team knows just what to do if it should occur again.

I doubt that the rash was the reason you cannot recall much about your first few days following surgery. Most of us don't remember all that much! It means they kept you very comfortable and and pain free as possible.
 
Jamie, I hope you are right. the horrible purple rash was over 80% of my body. The thought of having another reactions is scary. I wish I had found you when I had found you before my first operation. Tonight my left knee really hurt. Well that is the way it goes. My hip is really doing great so that worked. Now just for the knees. It will get better I'm sure. A day at a time and every day puts you closer to full recovery. :doggieshmooze:Tashis:friends:
