Recovering

Well Monday I finally had my laperscopy.
It went ok, except they didn't find anything when they went in.
Which was good I guess.
Thankfully though I have a great doctor who wanted to look into why I'd been in pain so she did some looking around.
Turns out my appendix was about the size of a tangerine (or a little bigger) when it's supposed to be about the size of your finger tip. And it had something in it, what I don't know at this point. I hopefully will find out on my visit the 14th.
But with it being like that it came out. So my recovery time is a little longer then the 2 days I initially expected. And I want to whine and complain at this point. :(
I'm still pretty sore and in pain. I feel like I walk like a dork, I can't drive (pain meds) and just miss the social interaction.

I'm not a stay at home kind of gal, and here I am stuck. :(

So this is my update plus my whininess all in one post.

Yes PTL that things aren't worse and that hopefully I'm in the clear on the other stuff as well that they caught this and it didn't burst because the recovery time on that is much worse.
But can I please get back to regular life?

I wound up needing to get my appendix out my first lap too!! So random!

Are you at least in less pain now though? I know after both my surgeries, even though I was still healing, I was in less pain...
