Narcotics unfortunately have that very common side effect. Try to increase fluids (can you say "prune juice"??). But don't skip your pain med's, as they still need to be taken on a regular basis.</p> <p>Could you please reassure us that someone is stopping in and checking on you on a regular basis? </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17226/page/2#post-383060 Wed, 20 May 2009 08:14:24 +0000 2bpurring 383060@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Wow I can see the improvement!!LOL Everyday will continue to be a little better and soon, no more pain!! {{{Amy}}} </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17226/page/2#post-383053 Wed, 20 May 2009 07:54:03 +0000 nawlins catmom 383053@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Great to hear from you today!

Please continue to check in so we don't panic. We will worry but we won't panic. Who is coming over to check on you today? Is your phone fixed? Do you need more help?

Even being tired easily, its good to see you up for a little while. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17226/page/2#post-382969 Wed, 20 May 2009 04:31:29 +0000 mollycat71 382969@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Today is day two that I am up. I got easily tuckered out yesterday. I am not sure I made my whole half an hour of sitting up yesterday. But oh well, I had nurse's betty and wilma helping out. Yes, WWM, I am measuring my protein intake and think maybe I am having a tad too much as I am not having normal bowel movements with my powdered anti constipation meds! The doc said to increase my water and continue drinking it. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17226/page/2#post-382928 Tue, 19 May 2009 21:11:47 +0000 rainingwolf 382928@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>So it's been a few hours now--does anyone know if she got her phone fixed via a coworker? Did someone really come out and check on her? I just can't believe how fast hospitals are shoving people out the door these days. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17226/page/2#post-382894 Tue, 19 May 2009 18:40:35 +0000 Lynn from PA 6/8 382894@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I am glad you are up and around, MC. I have been watching your recovery and glad you are doing ok. I always will be praying for you and hope that all is well. I hope the phone bill is fixed and all will be well. Stay safe and warm, and know that you are thought of all the time. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17226/page/2#post-382776 Tue, 19 May 2009 16:02:53 +0000 scarver 382776@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Hi MC, I'm so glad to hear you are up and about for a little bit today. Your pretty amazing. I will continue to pray for you and send lots of white light your way for a continued speedy recovery. Did you get your phone fixed? If not, I have a couple of extra "Sprint" phones, your welcomed to one if you need it? You can not be without a phone during your recovery. That is just to risky and it worries us all. Take care! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17226#post-382761 Tue, 19 May 2009 15:51:01 +0000 Tigerlilly 382761@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Hopefully she won't be carrying it all !!LOL </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17226#post-382758 Tue, 19 May 2009 15:49:32 +0000 GreatDane 382758@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Ooooh, tomorrow her mail should start coming to her house again.

I am still terribly worried. I really wish that someone had a contact and knew that she had a working phone. I agree with WWM--I really wish there was home health care. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17226#post-382572 Tue, 19 May 2009 13:15:45 +0000 LadyKat of IA 382572@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>So happy to hear that MC has been up today. But I do hope she's now back in bed resting after a co-worker visit and perhaps some nourishment. Prayers for her that she is now on the mend and feeling better every day. (It's so hard to work and worry and wish I could do more for MC.) </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17226#post-382540 Tue, 19 May 2009 10:52:15 +0000 SylMiaFelixMomma 382540@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I am so glad to hear from you MC. I was worried. Hope your co-worker is able to help you with your cell phone issue as well as provide you with some food and all. Anyway you could have this co-worker text CM so she has his number for back up? </p> <p>Glad to hear your kitties have come round and becoming velcro kitties. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17226#post-382526 Tue, 19 May 2009 10:22:16 +0000 Emma 382526@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>MC, do you have anyone staying with you? </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17226#post-382489 Tue, 19 May 2009 09:36:46 +0000 GizzysAuntie 382489@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Glad to hear from you, MC. Please be sure to listen to our nurses and health care experts. Have someone else take your phone to be repaired. Rest. Eat and keep hydrated. All the white light and good thoughts we can muster coming your way from the West Coast. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17226#post-382448 Tue, 19 May 2009 08:27:21 +0000 Karenopa 382448@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Oh what a relief to hear from you MC.......So relieved to hear a co-worker is coming by. I know we'd all feel better if one of us...WWM perhaps or Buttercup or Tigerlilly had anyone's number until you are able to send yours out for repair. Or even have someone bring a disposable phone temporarily. So, so happy to hear from you sweetie. Am there with you in spirit and love. =) </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17226#post-382427 Tue, 19 May 2009 08:04:07 +0000 beth 382427@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>amy i am ao happy to hear from you !! no wonder you are in pain , ouch all those staples . the surgeon really did a number on you..lol.. please get some rest and i think wwm is right you need at least a home health aid to come check on you. yes eat rest and better living through chemicals..lol.... lydia is worried about you , she called betty and wilma to watch you closely. so if you see your girls staring at you.. you'll know why... </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17226#post-382411 Tue, 19 May 2009 07:53:26 +0000 Tigerlilly 382411@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>MC, please listen to WWM....it is really quite important to eat, not just to aid in the healing process, but also, the side effects of pain meds will only be compundede if taken on an empty stomach. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17226#post-382409 Tue, 19 May 2009 07:51:07 +0000 2bpurring 382409@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Amy, You're up??? Wow you have an amazing will!! But please don't over do it!!<br /> And listen to Nurse Betty!! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17226#post-382394 Tue, 19 May 2009 07:29:57 +0000 WillowandWindismom 382394@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Amy, we have all been worried sick about you. Is someone taking your phone today to be repaired? You simply cannot be at home without a phone. Also, I want you to contact your doctor and get him to write an order for home health care for a couple of weeks. If you don't want to do that, perhaps you could give me his name and number and I could call and speak to his nurse? There is a strong possibility that they wouldn't be able to talk to me about you since I am not family (well, not blood anyway). So, it would be good if you called his nurse. </p> <p>Are you eating and drinking? I'm worried that you're not getting enough liquid or protein and that you will dehydrate. You need protein for wound healing.</p> <p>I know - so many questions! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17226#post-382393 Tue, 19 May 2009 07:25:54 +0000 AZDEBRA 5/27 & crew 382393@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Woo hoo glad that you are UP!!! Glad that your Doctor took care of the issues as he found them, sorry for the pain though. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17226#post-382391 Tue, 19 May 2009 07:23:19 +0000 Rubia in CA, 4/28 382391@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>AMY! Yay - so glad to hear you are up for a bit today. I'm also glad to hear that one of your co-workers will be stopping by today. We do all so worry about you, and it's nice to know that a non-virtual person will be stopping by. ;-) Please take care and don't overdo it! {{{AMY}}} </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17226#post-382387 Tue, 19 May 2009 07:16:16 +0000 MaxandCali'sMom 382387@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>What a great idea NCM!!! Could we all chip in for a masseuse for Amy? I mean a real one, not a virtual one. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17226#post-382385 Tue, 19 May 2009 07:12:10 +0000 nawlins catmom 382385@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>MC - don't try to do too much!!! Rest, sleep (that knits the ravelled sleeve of care) is the best thing for you... and take the pain meds - the body ehals better when it thinks it is not in pain... {{{{gentle hugs}}}} and a virtual foot massage... Is there someone local we could hire to perform that small task for you? </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17226#post-382384 Tue, 19 May 2009 07:10:21 +0000 SammyandOliversmama 382384@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>{{{{{Co-worker}}}} I hope he does come everyday for a while.
