Post-Op Day #10 - Dehydrated Fool

Well today was ROUGH, not with my ankle but with recovering from a NOT SO NICE late night, early morning session where my stomach decided lastnights dinner(Fish N Chips-which at the time was very YUMMY) was the enemy and would start a war! LOL

I thought I was going to faint because I got so weak but I used a cold cloth to stay awake and freshen up my face/neck. ugh! I know Adam was worried because I was looking very pale(the term Vampire or corpse sums it up well), just like when I had to go to the hospital before for dehydration and needed 3.5hrs of IV fluids.

I kept thinking "hmmm wish I had an IV drip right now to get some fluids back"!
I tried to drink as much water as I could but even that was upsetting my stomach. Blah!

I was up till 3am having my last "battle" then managed to convince my body to STOP and let me get some damn sleep! I slept till noon and when I woke up I felt like a dried out prune! HA HA!

All day I was feeling like S**T! I managed to get through the day without further issues - PHEW!

I had some soup and bread, I figured that would be the mildest thing I could put in my stomach and it'd agreed! YAY! I drank as much water as I could handle and even had a little bit of Gatorade -- mmmm electrolytes! ROFLMAO!

My ankle was great today, it was the least of my worries. :-) I took the bandage and dressing off to see how things looked(make sure there was no new blood etc..) and it was very good.
Though its really starting to bruise, it's going to be a rainbow of color in the next week I'm sure! :-)


Adam took me for a quick ride around the block today, the temperature was perfect -- not much sun out and a refreshing hint of cool. :-) That was the highlight of my day, the ride in the wee-chair! LOL oh ya, life is super exciting right now.

Well hopefully tomorrow will be more interesting for you.
