Here are the latest results from the visiting nurse today:
Blood Pressure 112/62
Temperature 96.1 degrees - (I'm getting cooler all the time!)
Pulse - 72
I talked a little about the C-word - "constipation" and how the surgery & meds are changing my normal pattern! (I can't believe I'm discussing this with the world!)

This happened to me after gall bladder surgery & is probably intensified because this operation is more severe & complex! Well today - SUCCESS! The day before I started taking - CareOne - Stool softener - three the day before & two on Wednesday! Here are a few tips that may also help the next few weeks"
1 - eat more fiber
2 - more physical activity
3 - drink more liquids
4 - take my Stool Softener
Another article that I found was this one on - "Constipation After Surgery"(click on the word)
Well, enough of this talk on my constipation, but remember when I started this blog I was going to share EVERYTHING! It's time to get our Christmas Cards finished - Sorry they are late! This is still going to be a great Christmas, even if some things are late!
Merry "Early" Christmas!
