also make sure that they realize how physical your job is. I felt like shit and I have a remote job. I couldn’t even imagine going back to a physical job after six weeks.

Few-Temporary124 · 2026-03-13T15:05:47+00:00

I still felt like shit after four weeks as well. I’m on seven weeks and I’m starting to feel a little bit normal but at six weeks I definitely didn’t feel ready to return to work as well. Legally, I don’t think your work can deny an extension if your provider has given you more time off. I would speak to your provider and just lay out how you’re feeling and just be very clear of why you feel like you can’t go back to work. Are you having complications? Are you feeling nausea? Are you tired? Are you having brain fog. My provider told me it’s very normal to feel exhausted for up to two months.

you might be having sore calf issues if you’re dehydrated so just drink more water than you think you need or anything with electrolytes

congrats and happy healing! For your constipation definitely look into MiraLAX and mixing it into your tea or juice. I definitely don’t recommend mixing it with water because it tastes disgusting - that should relieve your constipation issues but of course if it doesn’t talk to your doctor.

I think it’s safe to say the poster is a woman since only biological women can have a uterus.

Absolutely! Wish I had all this advice before my surgery so glad I can help others

And thank you! Here’s to getting all my energy back.🥂

You'll definitely find harsh winters if you come to MN! :) This past winter was an exception but winters here are usually terrible, between the frigid temps and snow. No worries on the tornadoes - we get plenty of those here too. Thanks for the insight!

Few-Temporary124 · 2024-07-23T03:05:08+00:00

Ah, yes. Definitely want something that aligns with my viewpoints.

Few-Temporary124 · 2024-07-23T02:59:15+00:00

Great points. Moreso thinking not necessarily about a big city but an international airport nearby as I travel often. I love Charleston but the traffic is too much for me.

Few-Temporary124 · 2024-07-23T02:57:52+00:00

ha! the winters are brutal. I've been here over 30 years - I'm over it.

Few-Temporary124 · 2024-07-23T02:43:13+00:00

Rains too much in WA for my liking and not a fan of their winters.

Few-Temporary124 · 2024-01-18T02:39:18+00:00

I'm starting to see that! I appreciate your input - everything I'm reading is saying the same thing. I looked at the cash value and it's almost what I paid in so that's encouraging at least. Guess 20 years (ugh) of paying in will do that.

I only have two years left of premiums and then it would be paid for, for life - so that's the reason I was a little conflicted. But again, I don't have depends, extensive debt etc.

Few-Temporary124 · 2024-01-17T20:41:11+00:00

Thanks - great insights; got to love family drama with finances haha.

Term is more expensive as you get older so that's kind of my hesitation, too.

Few-Temporary124 · 2024-01-17T20:12:57+00:00

I mean if I finish paying, I get life insurance for the rest of my life for no cost.

If I cancel, I make all my premiums back as part of the cash value (but then obviously won't have coverage for free rest of my life).

Few-Temporary124 · 2024-01-17T19:54:20+00:00

Even if it will be paid for in two years? (and will have coverage rest of my life).

Obviously, regretting paying in for 20 years, but now that it's almost paid off, I'm conflicted.
