upcoming surgery, need advice....

Post by cbe411 »

Hey fellow BPI'ers! I am having surgery on May 10th for 3 cysts on my tailbone! I have had trouble with them for the past 2 years and now that I am graduating college (YEAH) and have some "free" time I can have this done. Question is..... I have to be flat on my tummy for at least 2 weeks if not 3 or 4. I am NOT comfy on my tummy with this wacked out arm! Does anyone have a comfy tummy position that I can borrow? haha Thanks guys!

Hi Courtney, Narelle here (horsie's mum). I had major surgery couple of years ago where I was cut back and front so was unable to really lay either way. However, I found that but putting a pillow against your tummy and laying on that is quite comfortable. You are not totally on your tummy, gives you more of a side lay. Maybe try this it might help. Sometimes had a pillow at my rear as well...anything to get comfy. Take care Courtney, hope everything goes well...regards Narelle
