[Wallis Device Back Surgery] Post Surgery - Day 4

[Rich Wilson]

Pain Rating:

---

Woke up a few times during the night to urinate and had the sweaty spells as before. Probably got the most sleep of any night since surgery. Had a light healthy breakfast (oatmeal and toast) and another glass of prune juice. After breakfast, I finally had another bowel movement (almost 2 days between this and the last one). Went for a slightly longer walk this morning (probably 12 minutes). The pain seems to have subsided slightly and it's more soreness and tenderness than anything else.

Took a very much needed 3-4 hour nap today and again took the full dosage of pills today.

Later that evening I had my 2nd bowel movement of the day. Went to bed around 9.30pm and read for about 45mins. Given the sweaty spells from the previous night, I had the ceiling fan running most of the night. I woke twice to urinate, but didn't have the sweaty spells. Turned the ceiling fan off after the last visit to the bathroom
