Teddi Mellencamp is dealing with a side effect of her brain surgery, weeks after doctors successfully removed multiple tumors.

The 43-year-old reality television personality — who just dished on her dating life — took to Instagram on Saturday evening to share that she’s struggling with eye pain due to swelling.

First, the mom-of-three posted a pH๏τo of her five-year-old daughter Dove playing with her ‘bestie’ on a trampoline. She wrote, ‘Shortly after this [pH๏τo was taken] nurse Kel and @lital_aschkenasy iced me up and got me ready to [lie] in silence and the dark because my eye pain comes back same time every day.’

The following post in her Instagram Stories was a video clip showing her resting with a large blue ice pack set on top of her head.

‘Over it. I mean, the same time every single afternoon,’ she said before taking a deep sigh and adding, ‘I can’t even watch my shows.’

She captioned the footage, ‘Pretty much. Don’t contact me after 5:30pm because you won’t get a response.’

Mellencamp went on to write, ‘Surgery swelling, please go away. I would owe you one.’

The blonde beauty announced her split from her husband of 13 years, Edwin Arroyave, in November. In addition to Dove, they share Slate, 12, and Cruz, 10.

Then, in February she publicly shared that doctors discovered multiple brain tumors, resulting in emergency surgery.

The effects of the growing tumors were present for six months before the star, who is the daughter of musician John Mellencamp, finally sought medical attention.

She’d been suffering from migraines but ignored the pain and kept moving forward as she faced other issues in her life, Teddi said earlier this month on her Two Ts in a Pod podcast with Tamra Judge. 

‘I didn’t want to face any of it. And I was like, I just need to keep moving forward. And if I keep moving forward, then everything’s going to be fine,’ she explained about her mindset at the time.

The former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star then detailed her difficult recovery as she spoke about being discharged from the hospital after her February 12th brain operation.

She told listeners that she was forced to take ‘disgusting sodium pills’ because, in order to be discharged, she had to urinate. ‘I couldn’t pee, guys. I do not know why I could not pee,’ Teddi said.

Mellencamp has been candidly documenting her road to recovery and earlier this month she gave her social media followers an update on how she’s faring.

Uploading a selfie, she wrote, ‘Update from my scans today: I have multiple tumors in my brain that weren’t able to be removed via surgery. I also have 2 tumors in my lungs. These are all metastases of my melanoma.

‘The doctors are hopeful that immunotherapy will effectively treat them.’

Showing a touch of humor, she added, ‘I am feeling positive — that I will win this battle, that I got this wig (I like the short hair, just not the bald spots), and that I can remember all of Angelina’s kids’ names.’
