How long will my throat feel like crap post #intubation?

Aka at what point do I whine at spouse to take me to urgent care to see if I picked up a secondary infection (I don't THINK so but I've been wrong before) or if they oopsed my hyoid or something (hashtag #hypermobile worries)? The alternative is I just heal slowly from that shit and wahhh.

(Tomorrow will be 1 week #postop, if that helps at all.)

Got myself wondering how much pain etc from uterus and Co I just wasn't registering and/or was suppressing a lot because I gave the cat some kibble via this little squat-crouch-bend that didn't hurt but didn't make a huge mess either.

And then I observed that doing the same thing literally two days ago WOULD have hurt! I don't.... know how to feel about this. #yeeterus #hysterectomy #postop #postopthoughts #yeeteruspostop #postophysterectomy

Pumpkin's hair is coming through nicely since her op. Today she was making a shape and enjoying the sunshine.

Finest word in the English language: benign. Pumpkin's all right. They caught it in time.

Post op day 4. Without thinking, the leg rises and bends so I can put on my shoe, and I can walk in my usual flowing manner instead of pushwalker-step-step-pushwalker…. Starting the pain med taper.

>I doubt they’ll give a pass for a post op trans man

Not sure what you mean by "give a pass". Also, i specifically wrote with ungendered nouns to avoid being presumptuous, but that said, as a #postop #transwoman myself, whilst i care about ALL my cousins, i'm certainly v interested in my post-op trans-sisters' potential fate. I mean, to be blunt, as all post-op transmen & transwomen KNOW, there's no going back! 🤭

4 weeks and 3 days #PostOp from #hysterectomy #today. I (very cautiously) did my first solo load of laundry yesterday. This morning, I returned to the #gym and my much-missed personal trainer, and (very cautiously) did an hour of #PhysicalTherapy and rehab movement. It feels good to be slowly returning to life, but after weeks of being so ultra cautious, everything is honestly a little terrifying.

Today's #PostOp fun is nausea. The kind that just sorta hovers around the edges. Lurking. Not ramping up, but not moving along either. Good times!

Physical Therapy is really chill this early after surgery, but man I felt like I ran a marathon. Good news is with passive movement therapist got my arm to 90 degrees already. #postop #shoulder #physicaltherapy

You see me waiting on the bed like this, what's your next move? 😈

SOMEONE (#AshaDog) snuck up onto the couch this morning before being cleared to do that kind of jumping around. She looks very proud of herself. #DogsOfMastodon #AustralianShepherd #Greyhound #KellyTheGreyt #PostOp #TPLO

I was so happy I rode my Liv to work yesterday, first time since my op. OMG am I paying for it today. My core is not as repaired as I had hoped. So much pain I can barely sit or walk. I'm having to get a lift to work. 😩 #PostOp #RunningBeforeYouCanWalk

I think including the #nurse time in the previous graphic (with resp therapy and an incentive spirometer) as a “cost” is a bit misleading, since the nurse is going to be spending time with the patient anyway (well, in a perfect world) doing normal #PostOp assessments and teaching, including #respiratory activities. Full disclosure-article is behind a paywall and I did not read it. May have to go digging to see what evidence there is for IS vs no IS.

Asha has thoughts about her rehab walk in the rain this morning. Mostly of the “ugh” variety.

12 days post #hysterectomy and I've had a flare up of #sciatica . Can't sit down for longer than 10 mins and when I put my feet down I get shooting pains up my back and legs 😑
I dunno if its a product of my surgery (nerves healing or position during surgery most likely) because I've had it on and off for years.
Otherwise I feel like I'm healing well. Just very tired today

Having a bad pain and mental health day today. Sometimes it feels like I'm never going to be better and I'm going to be trapped in my bed forever 🥺💔
