I'm also on day 9. I went back to work today and am very tired tonight. I had some mashed potatoes and cream of wheat today. I didn't really feel much better until about day 6-7. I stayed overnight and had a lot of issues with nausea on day 2 and styled another night. Feeling much better now, not much "gas" pain and walking the dog. Hang in there everyone and it'll get better!!!
