   Depressed Post Surgery (Spinal Cord Disorders board)

24th May 2003
Am a bit depressed but don't know if it's the meds, the weather, the unknown bones in my body, or just exhaustion. I'm not the type that gets upset easily but I've found myself getting so tearied eyed lately. I can't sleep on the pills I take and am barely lucky to get a few cat naps in during the day. I watch TV all night. Also I have a steri strip on my neck that I change daily. Am I suppose to put bacitracin or something on it prior to putting over sutures? I can't remember what they told me at the hospital because I was in such a state about getting out of there. The neck pain continues on the opposite side but the dr. says it's normal. I have a huge lump in my throat and can't eat anything short of mush or broth. Have lost lots of weight but suppose that's a good thing altho don't want to get too thin. I'm seeing the dr. next week to have sutures out and expect I'll find out more then. He's very bland and says very little - only what he has to. I want to thank everyone for their wonderful comfort and support. Thanks for letting me lean on your shoulders - all of you!
Judy
