@yoursilverlining: I know, I was surprised too. I've known her for years, and she's prescribed me controlled meds for my anxiety attacks before. She actually said I shouldn't be having so much pain "this far out" from my surgery? I thought that seemed odd since I sent her the message at only one week pp.
she did mention contacting the surgeon who did the c section, but he was an on call hospitalist, so I doubt he'd refill either.
Either way, I think I'm doing okay enough to get by with Tylenol and ibuprofen, but it was frustrating! I definitely hear you re: doctors tightening the reins on opiates. As a nurse, I'm seeing this a lot with my patients.

@Mrs. Blue: @Boogs: yeah that's so interesting! I'd never heard of, or would have even considered, an ab binder!
@2littlepumpkins: that is interesting to hear! This time, I feel I'm a little more cautious because it was surgical. But my first (Vaginal) was five years ago and I cannot remember how long recovery took or specifics at all- just vague bits and pieces. I know the first week was difficult, but I don't remember much after that.
