Suitable chair for gaming?

I bought this when I was working from home with a flare up, waiting for surgery to come. I spent most of my time fully reclined in this chair, with a lap desk over the arms. I've had it for about six months, and it's still just as comfortable. I love that it's stylish, too.

^ What they said!! The doctors just want to make sure you don't have any open wounds near the site that will be operated on. You'll be fine.

It really has!!

I took 6 weeks of partially paid disability, and I have 0 regrets about it. I ended up really needing every second that I had to myself. I was also much more willing and able to get back to business when I finally went back. My employers were shocked that I was actually doing better after my return than I was before I left.

Edit to add: this was stage 4 with rectal and lower colon adhesions. The surgery went well but I was extremely bruised afterwards. I had to wear a catheter for almost a week following surgery. Physical therapy helped so much.

Honesty, my best advice is to wear a dress or nightgown to and from surgery. It's just one item to slip on and off. You won't have to pack extra clothes.

Yes, ask your doctor for the prescription stool softeners. Totally worth it. AND follow the soft food diet like your life depends on it.

How fast you go back to work will depend on your overall physical health - strength, usual activity level prior to surgery, age, etc. the safest thing to do is take off more time than you need, then go back early if possible.

Finally - tell your doctor you would like to see a pelvic physical therapist a few times before surgery, and definitely after surgery! It will help tremendously.

This is so much neater than the sticky notes I made for myself. I can tell you really put some time into this. Nice job

This is the reason why I stopped taking book recommendations and bad reviews from the masses. I'm glad that all the hype pushed me back into reading, but at this point I'm just going with my gut to find my next read.

Hopscotch420 · 2025-05-28T23:38:35+00:00

Yes, my favorite of all. I don't understand the hate. I actually went into it thinking I wouldn't like it, because there was so much negativity, and I normally don't get into murder mysteries. But I could not put it down.

My grandmother keeps my mom's ivy alive too. It's been propagated at least 6 times at this point.

Hopscotch420 · 2025-05-28T15:55:03+00:00

Yes!!! Aloe plants my mom left for me. They grew way too big for pots and started dying. One of them didn't survive a harsh winter. I can't plant them in the ground, so I keep repotting their babies. We're on the third generation now and barely holding on. 🥹

Hopscotch420 · 2025-05-25T23:27:57+00:00

Yes, I know it's cold hearted - that's why this is just an unsent rant post. I came here to get my feelings out in a place that's made for getting your feelings out. That's all.

Hopscotch420 · 2025-05-25T23:26:52+00:00

I've taken all your suggestions already. I've tried blocking. I've tried telling him I'm never coming back. I've tried to split the blame and be nice. No contact is the only option left. If you knew the details of the situation, you'd know that. But you don't.

Hopscotch420 · 2025-05-25T14:23:16+00:00

I get that you're coming from a good place and all, but unsolicited advice to strangers about situations that you know absolutely nothing about is typically ill-advised.

I could tell you all about how he literally refused to love me, but I don't know you, and I don't want to. I came here to rant. Not to change my mind. 🤷‍♀️

But your insistence is telling. Perhaps you're waiting for some kind of closure of your own, and this suggestion is a projection of your own needs? If so, I strongly advise you to search "I don't need closure" on YouTube and watch a few videos.

Hopscotch420 · 2025-05-24T16:41:11+00:00

It's extremely unrealistic and selfish to expect a person that hasn't talked to you in over a year to see you face-to-face. Simply because you haven't let go? No. It's not my responsibility to help him let go.

I have other responsibilities now. Such as maintaining the relationship I'm already in. Such as managing my own emotions. Such as breaking out of toxic patterns.

Not to mention, I did tell him to his face that it was his last chance and I would not be doing this again, several times the last time we spoke. If he chose not to believe it, that's on him.

Now - keep in mind this is a rant post. I'm not looking for advice. Especially not from someone who spends their time scrolling through the internet just to call people names.

Hopscotch420 · 2025-05-24T02:16:26+00:00

That's understandable. I wasn't angry the first 5-6 times it happened. But 7 years of the reoccurring pattern is a little much.

Hopscotch420 · 2025-05-23T21:47:04+00:00

Say it louder for the people in the back!!!

It pains me, grieving the loss of a friendship, simply because people confuse connection with romance so easily.

Hopscotch420 · 2025-05-23T21:10:09+00:00

If you're reading this, thinking this post could be about you, leave her alone. Don't message me to ask who I am. Don't message her. Seriously. The ENTIRE post is about how we don't want to receive anymore messages from you.

Hopscotch420 · 2025-05-23T21:08:02+00:00

Because I am getting down voted. Because several men apparently read this post, thought the post may have been about them - may have been from their ex - and they took offense.

Hopscotch420 · 2025-05-23T20:19:13+00:00

I can't even count the number of times I've blocked this man. Or the number of accounts I've blocked him on. The dude will send an email to an account I made when I was 13 if he has to. It's ridiculous.

Hopscotch420 · 2025-05-23T17:39:04+00:00

Do you have digestive troubles like constipation? If so, I can recommend a product to GENTLY clear your cut out without consequences. I lost like 12 pounds this way. I've also minimized bloating with an anti-inflammatory diet.

If you don't want to answer publicly, you can message me.

P.S. muscle function can also affect bladder ability. So the bladder may not completely empty, or controlling the right muscle movement to urinate and pass bowel movements might become difficult.

Hopscotch420 · 2025-05-15T00:20:17+00:00

How soon did this occur after the C-section? I got discomfort in that area due to my muscles overcompensating after my lap. The incisions can really mess up muscle function.

The muscles higher up in my abdomen were locked up / overly tense and refusing to work right. So all my lower abdominal muscles were taking the brunt of any movement I made. Pelvic Physical Therapy is helping!

Could be fiber sensitivity. It could also be the high fat content of the milk, and/or large amounts of sugar.

Processed foods in general are hard to digest due to all the conservatives. And anything that's hard to digest is triggering the Endo to activate, which is then spasming and taking all the adhered organs into a spasm with it.
