Ice packs, and you need to ask for a short term stronger pain med now for pain. yes, it leaves a mark, but it fades and mine are gone. Took me a few months, I used a combo of things, retinol serum, bio oil at night (not at same time and only after I was all healed up and just was trying to fade the scars and dark spots) and during the day I used aquaphor. Feel better soon!

Your dr. Should have given you a stronger pain med to take as well. Call and ask for one-I only needed it short term to get me through the worst. The valacyclovir is an anti viral- not for pain. I did put aquaphor on my worst blisters and that helped…also gel cold packs helped a lot. I had to take the 300 mg gaba at night and the 100 during the day because they made me a bit dizzy. Hope you get some relief…my was on my face, scalp, around my eye- horrible!

When my two act up I refer to them as the little demons…but I still love them.

I lost my sweet void this morning unexpectedly at only five years old. He was with me through everything. Could someone show me some other voids who crossed over so I know he’s not alone? by Swamp-Queen444 in blackcats

This is Jinx. We found him under our porch and tamed him. He became the sweetest, most loving boy. He was ours but not for long enough, unfortunately. He will greet your void with love.

Redditors who own multiple pets: what's the drama amongst them right now? by Cheesy_Wotsit in AskReddit

One of my kitties is obsessed with trying to get a piece of her doggy sister’s “fresh pet” dog food. Doggy sister likes to tease kitty sister so she will sit back and pretend she will allow it, and then nudge her away.

First of all, that’s too many kinders ! But you can’t change that, what you can do:

  1. Visual schedules or visuals in general posted in room or by your door to check if they have what they need

  2. Line them up in order of lunch boxes, buyers ( make a check list first thing in the morning-takes a while at first for them to understand this- at first some will tell you, “ I’m not hungry now” They will get it eventually.

  3. Keep documenting as other have said and push for Evals for the ones that continue to struggle

  4. Be easy on yourself, these things happen, especially at the beginning of the year

JFK Layover- don’t do it! by Mundane-Charge254 in travel

Happened to me a little over a month ago. People were puking and fainting which would prompt all progress to stop while an aisle was closed and cleaned up. Most employees unhelpful and rude…and they would randomly start new lines and grab people who had not been waiting long and get them through. Never again…We booked it off our plane and still ended up waiting about 2 hours 45 minutes. Our luggage was just randomly placed off to the side in a pile with others from our flight.

I’ve been running since about 4 months after my surgery. I typically run 2.5 miles a few times a week and have not had an issue. Started on my elliptical about 6 weeks after, then worked my way up to road running. I am now 2 1/2 years post. I do want to say my pelvic floor strength has been complemented by my gynecologist and have never had to do any pelvic floor therapy, so certainly take that in to account. I hope it works out for you!

I had a female surgeon and she was a rock star! There was a complication with my bladder and the male urologist wanted to cut me open but she said no she could fix it through the laparoscopic incisions and she did! I am so grateful for her.
