Before I launch into my latest health-related woe, have a look at what I finished last night;

I made a bunch of these tiny luna moth pins.  They're very cute & wee.  I put them up on Etsy already. 

So here's what's going on; I think something's gone wrong with my surgery.  I didn't really notice until yesterday, because that was the first day I tried to go without meds, but I'm in way too much pain considering how much time has passed since the procedure.  I had it last Friday (six days ago, now) & the pain is actually getting worse instead of better.   Also, I'm very bloated.  Also, there's a lot of really dark bruising.  He did remark on the bruising yesterday.  After I got home & finally broke down & took the darvo (remember?), it only helped for a little while & then the pain came back even worse overnight.

I called the doc's office...it figures he's in surgery all day, so the soonest they can see me is tomorrow morning.  Until then I'm taking the rest of the darvocet & sleeping, & hoping it doesn't get any worse.  If it does I'm just going to the ER, because at this point I'm starting to get scared. 

EDIT...Okay, I really didn't mean to make anyone worry.  :-)  The thing is I KNOW if I go to the ER they'll laugh at me.  I don't have a fever, my gums are pink, my tummy is swollen but not hard (just puffy)...so it doesn't seem to be an infection or internal bleeding.  I fear it's more like nerve damage or maybe some small damage that's not catastrophic but definitely needs to be checked.  So, tomorrow I'll get an exam & maybe a sonogram & then I'll have a better idea of what's happening.  In the meantime, pain meds (I hope they last).  Kris, thanks for calling hon.  Nancy, I love you DO NOT CALL MOM!  She'll just freak out & I don't want her to freak out (she makes things worse).

Umm...I sold a wolf on Etsy.  THAT's good news, right?  :-)
