I am one week post op. Monday I laid down a lot. By night time I had an excruciating headache. Nothing would touch it. Tues I sat up more and it seemed more bearable. I wonder if it had anything to do with it. Anyone else have this experience?
Hi Becky:
Looking back at my own recovery(had surgery almost 4 yrs ago) ..Yes, I too had more pain when I was in bed for too long..so I did continue to lay down but didn't stay that way for long periods during the day...I would go for mini walks around the yard...the fresh air really helped.
Hope you are feeling better..keep us updated on how things are going.
Peace,
Lori
I agree with Lori on yes sitting up more may help. Fresh air is always nice. While recovering, I spent a lot of time during the day in the recliner. Can you tell the headache is going to get bad and take something before it is excruciating?
Take care and remember your body is healing.
