Six Weeks since Surgery

I have decided that I am in fact the slowest healer on the planet!

Still quite tender in all the places that were cut both inside and outside. I had a couple of rather long stitches come popping out from where the troublesome surgical drain was and now that seems to be healing finally. I think there might be one more in there so I will keep an eye on it. They had to do a couple of sets of stitches on that drain 10 days after the drain was put in and I think some of the stitches kind of got scabbed over under the newer stitches.

My liver is still quite sore to the touch but nothing even close to what it was before the surgeries.

After not being able to work out for eight weeks I went back to it last week and it was the saddest least energetic set of workouts ever! But…..I feel like already some of the muscle is coming back and as the abdominal muscles rebuild it add a layer of protection to my insides. Might be in my imagination rather than in my digestive system. 🙂

I figure as long as I can see parts of me on the outside that are still not all the way healed there are most likely parts of me on the inside that have ways to go and I will not worry about it.

Also I can eat! I still cannot gain weight and really do not have much of an appetite but when I do get some food in it no longer hurts me!
