2wks Post Discharge Appointment

I can drive again...woo hoo! My blood pressure was up (136/96) but they didn't seem too concerned...who knows. The incision site is healing nicely and I can start lifting again...nothing too heavy, but it's a start. I asked about the discomfort I was having about 2 inches above the incision site and apparently it's scar tissue. She told me that it comes from not taking it easy - I don't know how much easier I can take it, though...unless she's going to start taking care of Meghan for me. I'd sooner believe it comes from getting up off of the couches (they sit low and you sink in) while trying to hold on to her. Sure, I could lay her down on the couch just long enough to get up, but that's a giant pain the ass and I generally don't think of it until after the fact... I go back in 4 weeks for another check up ... there was something else that they were going to be discussing, but I can't remember.
