Those are the things that I will literally bust a gut laughing over. So of course, I'm not inviting all my friends over.\u201d \u2014 Emily, 3 Days Since Uterus Eviction Day >>> SUPPORT THE SHOW https:\/\/ko-fi.com\/thatshystericalpodcast <<< ** Stay in the loop with our latest episodes, upcoming topics, and exciting announcements \u2014 Sign Up for the Newsletter! ** In This Episode:  It\u2019s Day 3 and I\u2019m feeling significantly better again this morning! Once again, it\u2019s feeling like a giant ab workout. It feels like there\u2019s some organ shifting going on and I\u2019m considering getting a compression binder. (I did end up getting it and I\u2019m glad I did!) \u201cSo much room for activities!\u201d - My organs since the hysterectomy, probably. I\u2019m finding out what I thought would be comfortable to wear post-surgery vs. what I actually wanted to wear are very different. No to leggings, yes to empire waist dresses. Hell yes to Project Runway Season 16 Contestant Kentaro\u2019s Fake Leggings that I want for my oversized blanket hoodies! Today\u2019s tangent is talking about the thigh burns from tights, ooof! It\u2019s weird listening to me try to justify my Amazon purchases, to be honest. I haven\u2019t shopped there in months, as of this recording. Bezos has enough of my money. Maybe that\u2019s another upside of not having chronic pain is I don\u2019t mind going out and shopping for the things I need now. I\u2019m also looking at getting a walking treadmill. I ended up getting a Urevo and still use it more than a year later :)  Hannah Gadsby\u2019s \u201cDouglas\u201d is fantastic, especially her bits about autism. Standup comedy normally doesn\u2019t make me belly laugh, so I didn\u2019t worry too much about hurting my mid-section. But if you\u2019re looking for post-surgery entertainment, stay away from the stuff that\u2019ll have you grabbing your stomach even more! We talk a little about the importance of talking about our struggles and stories in order to normalize and take away the stigma of conditions that make it difficult to live a full and happy life. I\u2019m glad I can get back to my vitamins and supplements, especially when I noticed the difference in my ADHD. Get your sunlight, friends! Vitamin D, especially in the colder, darker seasons, is hard to come by! Note from Future-Emily: Oh my goodness, I find this so funny how I was convinced I would feel like this for the rest of my life. The shifting organs thing lasted a while, but now that I\u2019m a year out as I write this, everything seems to be set in place fine now :)  Additional Links and Resources: Links not working in your podcast player app?
