Trying to Recover!!!

So I had my surgery on March 16th and all went well  I  suppose, except when I got home I couldn't cough, sneeze, breathe deeply, laugh or even fart (seriously) without having a massive pain shoot right thru me.  So I went to the ER of the hospital and was admitted and put on antibiotics, two days later went back into surgery to have my wound washout and omg, the pain was horrible the second time around.  I have since been recovering and trying to remember my limits.  Not exactly sure how long the process takes.  I get my stitches removed on April 21.  I am sometimes feeling good and then BAM its like I'm not, still taking muscle relaxers and suffering from serious insomnia. And I'm not even napping in the day...The headaches comes from me not remembering my limits but I'm dealing with it...idk..I know that it was the right thing and the thing I had to do because I was suffering but now idk how to cope with these new limitations.  I am a workaholic, must be doing something and now I have been stopped in my tracks and trying to find something to occupy my time and failing miserably....I suppose in time it will work itself out but until then I need some suggestions starting to feel swallowed up by what I now call my handicap.
