Well, I woke up early (4:30am) again. Too bad I am restricted to NO strenous exercise right now, because I never wake up this early otherwise. I could work out and still be done by 6am.
My husband and I prayed and opened gifts together. We were both very happy - him with lots of Ralph Lauren apparel and me with diamond solitaire earrings!
I woke up with a slight pressure/tightness on my head and scalp. Not enough to take a pill for. We got dressed to go and spend the day with my family and I decided to put on a turtleneck because it went great with this Obama skirt I just "had" to wear. It was semi-painful trying to ease my swollen scabbed head through the neck but I did. Halfway through I changed my mind but I decided to push through since I had already started the discomfort.
Our day was wonderful with family. No one really questioned me about wearing a scarf since they knew I had some type of "surgery" on my head. That made me feel good since I really don't care to discuss it in person. I prefer blogging about it.
I went the whole day with no meds. Towards the night time different portions of my head started to "come alive". Very distinct sections regained "feeling" and started to ache. Not enough to cry about but certainly enough to take a low dosage pain killer. My right ear and that side of my head is now almost fully alive. I guess the nerves are healing and reconnecting at different speeds, etc. I am just glad to be "feeling" again in and around the transplanted and donor areas.
As soon as we got home I went straight for the ambien.
