It's Day Ten of Recovery after my hysto. I was supposed to have laparoscopic intravaginal, but Dr H found a fibroid the size of my fist in there. So guess who got an incision between his fat belly and FUPA? This guy. Right here.
And guess who can't do narcotics? This guy. Dilaudid made me itch and my heart race. I was switched to Percocet, which makes me itch, but Benadryl reduces most of that.
It also made me constipated. Four days post-op I was in the ER, bound tighter than Dick's hatband and near tears. Haven't touched a Percocet since. Been on ibuprofen and an occasional acetaminophen since then.
My incisions look pretty good at this point. Some scabs have peeled away and the skin underneath looks pink. I've got two incisions covered up at the moment, because they looked a little deep. Otherwise, they seem fine. [I do tend to heal quickly from minor injuries.]
At this point I'm just really sore and tired. I also feel like I have to use the toilet about every hour or so. But the thing that really gets to me, is even though I took my last injection on 15 October, I'm gagging for it. Dr H said no Adult Shenanigans until six weeks post-op. When I asked about fapping he said two weeks, as long as it's all on the outside. And I have no problem with that. I wasn't exactly the town bicycle before nor will I be after this. [I mean, don't get me wrong, it actually sounds fun...]
So, what do you lads think? Am I healing properly? What should I do about my arousal? I still have...checks watch...97 hours to go. And how much is it going to hurt when I can finally take matters in my own hand?
Big hug! Congratulations, and it sounds like you're healing well. I had complications with my orchiectomy and day ten was about when it went off the rails, so I assume you're OK. I waited five weeks to run a fire drill with my equipment. :) Best wishes!
Hugs, Devlyn
Hey, thumbs up on the new changes in your life! I had weight loss surgery in July, and 10 days out was when I finally started to feel like myself again. Frustrating that you can't get to know yourself a little better yet! I had to wait a few weeks post surgery, but I'm pre-T, so it wasn't as bad.
Here's hoping your healing continues to go well!
Congrats! Its always good to hear how someone's doing after major surgery. ☺
Take care of yourself and don't rush. Fapping will be possible to you again soon enough. [emoji16]

Amadeus, sorry to hear you had complications with your hysto. I hope you have a good recovery from here on out; you will have to take it easy since you had a big incision.
Thanks everyone! Today most of the soreness seems to be under my belly, where the big incision is. The area was kinda numb up until now. Oh look, all the nerves are waking up. And they're pissed off. Yay.
BUT...I can cough now! I sneezed yesterday and it didn't feel like my insides were being torn apart. I'm walking less like Sophia Petrillo and...well, less like my grandfather, too. Progress!
Now if I can just stop with this damn 'urgency' to use the toilet about every hour...
