I just walked down stairs and it didn't hurt! First time since the surgery I've been able to do it pain-free. Whee!

I've still got pain still, but not nearly as much. And I'm soooo happy about this trip down the stairs!

Last night, I was walking and I think I might have bounced a little in my step or I took too deep a breath or both at the same time and I felt such a horrible pain below my largest incision. I don't know what it was. It lasted about a minute so intensely. And then it backed off a little and hurt for another few minutes at a lower level. But... yeah... I took my phone out and almost called 9-11. It hurt more than it did after surgery. But then it passed.It still hurts in that area a little bit, but not much. I have no clue what it was still. Muscle spasm? Muscle hitting something it shouldn't? Something exploding in me? I've got no clue. *sigh* But this is why I'm going to take it easy this weekend even though I made it down the stairs successfully. I hope to soon be able to lie down to sleep! (I can lie down, I just can't get up afterward, which is terrifying, so it's best to not put myself in that situation).


On another note, ugh, my car failed state inspection and needed new brakes. I was hoping that maybe, with all my health expenses, this year fate would be kind to me. Alas, that was too much to ask for. But my car is happier now. So no worries.


Also, I'm thinking of a new series on my blog where I have photos of my stuffed Eeyore from his various adventures. I don't know if it's fandomy enough... but I took a photo of him today and got inspired to share more.
