Surgery Tuesday (1.23.2024). Itchy near steri strips, tegaderm ... Benadryl helps. Overall, doing pretty well considering. Got my JP drains out!! Steri-strips have to stay on for up to a month 🙁 tegaderm came off with JP Drains. I will continue Benadryl. Despite feeling pretty good; I'm still healing and need to give my body grace. 1.31.2024 slept in bed instead of recliner. 2.1.2024 Changed from bra to compression tank.
Medical drama(on day 116): Lost consciousness a few times. Probably orthostatic bp. EMTs checked me over. All good. Taking it slow today when changing positions.
