Getting better

figmentI am getting better. We had some people over for low-key evenings a couple of times this weekend, mostly to keep ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
azure_armand and me from going completely crazy. I am generally able to get up, walk around, etc. almost as normal, just really slowly to avoid straining my abdominal muscles at all. I spent most of the day off of pain meds entirely, and we went for a really slow walk around the block. (Literally around the block, no further.) I did have to give in and rest and take some meds this evening, but then, loopy as a loon, we went to a very nearby restaurant and had a nice dinner there. So I have ventured all of about 2-3 blocks from home, so far. Not too bad. Glad I had my man with me, though, for many reasons!
I don't know if I will attempt work tomorrow. If I take a taxi then the commute would probably be okay. It's the stairs that worry me: I did not do well with the smaller flight of stairs I tried yesterday. I could work a half day, or something. Or not go at all, it's not like I don't have a good excuse. But I am going to go crazy if I stay home much longer. I will see how I feel tomorrow, I guess...

Date: 2007-10-22 03:52 am (UTC)I have to agree with the others -- stay home. Rest. It helps SO MUCH with healing and in the long run I dare say your total net craziness will be less, because you'll be back to 100% sooner.
Ahem:
Date: 2007-10-22 01:31 pm (UTC)No no; you are *healing*.
Some of us think that you couldn't possibly be getting "better" as you and yours are already the "best".
Just take your time healing, eh?
