Day 2 Post Surgery
Today was a little better than yesterday. I want to take a bath so bad, but I have to wait 3 days and even then I can only take a shower. I realized that the only time I need a little pain relief is so I can get some sleep. My body is tired and the best way to assist in the healing process is to get plenty of rest. I've made sure to drink plenty of water. My husband bought me low sodium chicken broth that taste very good if I must say so. I've been able to drink about 5 sips of that, 16 oz of my vitamin water and 2 16.5oz bottles of water. I decided to get some walking in today. I went to Walmart for a couple of items. 1....a laxative. I have to go to the bathroom so bad and it hurts. 2....some jello. I ate it really slow but it did fill me up. I didn't even eat the whole cup. The worst thing about today is I started my cycle. So not only do I have to adapt to my new addition I now have to deal with my horrible period. I still have pain in m back. I'm not sure if it is the gas or just my body trying to adapt to the band.
