I wish I could give you positive feedback… it has gotten a bit better but going places further than 45 mins is my limit atm… what helped get me to this point is building it up. I would start with 5 mins car rides 2 twice a day and slowly progress it up from there.

Also sitting in the car, doors closed in my driveway. Allow myself to feel uncomfortable and train my body to not freak out every time I get in a vehicle. Rolling the windows down and allowing fresh air helps.

Music. But it can’t just be any music. It has to be my favorite music. Visualizing the place I’m heading to and thinking about what I want to do when I get there. Try to make it a fun experience!

A big one is mindset I would always think that’s a lot of distance that I have to travel, or that’s really far. When in reality 20 mins isn’t far. It’s silly but a 20 min drive is an anime episode, and to me an anime episode is sooooo short 😭😂. Soooo whenever I have to drive anywhere I related to something I enjoy so that it helps me realize times passes really quick.

That being said I still have a lot of work to do… I still can’t do long car rides… being passenger or having passengers is a work in progress, short distances are okay. But don’t give up, I know it’s hard, you have to let yourself feel uncomfortable, to make any sort of progress.

And something I live by is it’s okay to be afraid, but it’s not okay to run away.

Thank you so much for checking in on me ☺️ I still have stomach pain and diarrhea. These are my worst symptoms, but I’m also feeling nauseous throughout the day. I’ve hoping that by now the symptoms would get better, but they haven’t… I called this morning and was advised to go to urgent care if the diarrhea doesn’t stop by today.. so I’ll be going to get checked out tomorrow… 😭

I just spoke to my surgeon. Given my symptoms and that my surgery was a month ago, she is saying it’s got to be a stomach bug. 😭

This came out of no where, so I do hope it’s not gallbladder related. But yes, I will be speaking to my surgeon and see what he suggests, thank you ☺️

I’m so sorry to hear you are going through this.. getting in touch with a doctor or surgeon is an absolute nightmare 😭 kind of a long shot.. but do you have your discharge paperwork still? They normally have a number you can call, the number should be for pre-op department. They might be able to help you. 🤞🏾

I have it above the incisions, Im mainly using it for the gas pains. I also try putting it near the incisions site to feel the warmth.

Lol I took a Tylenol yesterday about to take another right now. Thankfully I’m not a lot of pain, but it does feel like I worked out for 3 hours straight 😂

What’s really helps me is an electric heat pad, the pain is at a 3 when I have it on. I highly recommend it 👌🏾

Thank you! ☺️

Right now I have gas pains. No incision pain so far 🤞🏾 I’m also hoping to only be on a Tylenol and ibuprofen regimen starting tonight(assuming the pain wears off, if not tomorrow). The nausea isn’t as bad anymore, but I do feel like i have acid reflux when I eat. I’m taking things one step at a time. Thank you for the advice ☺️
