Re: Awake

[Guest guest]

, You've got it down pat then! It definitely works...so glad to hear you've been successful in getting through your explant with few pain meds. Meditation is a pretty cool thing! I love the idea of going places in my mind to get away from the drudgery here at times. Your places to go sound so pretty. I get myself back into the woods, smelling the pines, the campfire, seeing the deer and the beautiful aspens. I hope you continue to heal quickly. You've got all the surgery behind you now. Now, it's just a matter of time and detoxing. Love, Pattycynthia pyne <pynerone@...> wrote: Patty, When I do meditative thinking, I invision places I've never seen before. Mountains with snow beside a beach with palm trees. Meditation is great and you can go anywhere and see anything. It's my way of blocking out worries about the past due bills and my resentments toward people that have offended me, mostly people in the medical field. I've been using meditation for my pain since surgery. I think that's why I haven't had to take much pain medication. I only took 7 pills out of a bottle of 30. I still hurt from time to time, but not enough to take anything, it's just annoying pains. Take care of yourself. Love Tricia Trish <glory2glory1401 > wrote: Hi Lynn, I'm up too!

change your meditative focus on other pleasant things for awhile....like a beautiful spot you visited--try to recall every detail in your mind of what made it so beautiful, and maybe you will be able to forget the pain and fall asleep again!

Patty,

So funny. I have 2 half-Kymer

(Cambodian) granddaughters and 2 half Native

American granddaughters (have to ask my daughter

which tribe) and 1 grandson that is about 1/8

Native American (another tribe) and don't know

about the ancestry of the other 3. Pretty jumbled, I would say.

Lynn, I'm traveling and can't check all the responses you've had - so someone may have already said this . . . I know it hurts like crazy right now . . . and may for a little while. However, be thankful you have sensation in your nipples! . . . Many times women lose all sensation after implant or explant. Maybe Dr. Huang can give you some numbing spray or lotion to use for the time being. Hugs, Rogene

[Guest guest]

Rogene,

Well I have ultra senstation. I am happy that I have feeling in them but I wish it didn't hurt so dang bad.

Good idea about the spray or lotion. If the pain doesn't ease up by tomorrow, I will call Dr. Huang. Right now I am on vicodin and I am still in pain.

Hope you are having a nice time on the road.

Hugs, Lynn

Thanks for your good healing wishes. I getting there, one day

at a time. Just as long as I'm moving forward I'm okay with it.

Glad to hear you got your drains out.

I think I hold the record on length drains were in LOL.

Take good care.

Lynda, My ancestors on my grandfather's side were Pilgrims too . . . Have you run across the name "Newman"? Rogene

Rogene,

I will have to check. I cannot find my copy of the genealogy chart.
