Day 2: Gas, gas, and more gas

Today I feel BETTER. I am actually less sore, but still have the gas. I can feel it in my back, of all places... which makes it hard to lay down on my back. I have been walking once down my street today and I am about to go back out once I finish this. If I could just get the gas to go away, I'd feel so much better! My stomach is still pretty sore but I can tell it's better from yesterday already.

 

I am taking gas-x - the one that melts on your tongue but it's kind of gross and I hate taking it. I still have not taken pain meds. I have skin glue, so he said I could take a shower today - which I did. It helped make me feel more "human" but by the time I got out of the shower I was completely exhausted. I have zero energy, and walking, showering, even standing wears me out so quickly. It's unreal.

 

All in all, I am feeling a lot more positive about things today. I am still sipping water, not very interested in any kind of food.

 

Once I get the gas to go away I will be so much better!

my surgery was monday may 4 2009. it is now saturday may 9. I also had lots of gas the first few days. today it is much less except when I drink or have food liquid of course. I have so far not been hungry had meals about every 2.5 to 3hrs. 4 oz soup or medifast that kind of thing. But other then pee nothing else comes out. Sorry not a normal subject but I was wondering if others have the same thing.

Welcome to the world of.....G A S .... for four solid, relentless days, I had a line of pain that ran the width of my back where my bra rides! I couldn't sleep until I was totally worn out from pain and would finally fall dead away, with my head hanging....in the recliner. I could not lay down AT all until Tuesday afternoon when the pain suddenly disappeared, never to return! I had surgery Thursday morning and went until mid afternoon, Tuesday without rest or lying down. Keep up the good work...it will all come to an end and new day dawns..the best kind!!
