Still, almost six weeks out from my initial surgery and one week after my portacath surgery, I’m still in pain. A lot of actions I used to take for granted I now dread. I’m in pain and in fear of increased pain if I do something to aggravate myself. It is improving every day but slower than I had hoped. Here’s a brief list of things that scare the crap out of me now because they hurt or really hurt:
- sneezing
- coughing
- yawning
- stretching
- walking
- turning my head
- standing up
- sitting sown
- moving my right arm
- sleeping on my side or stomach
- sitting for long streches
- sometimes, even doing nothing
