    need some advice

    I am 9 days post-op and my first few days were not very successful. However, each day did get better in terms of being able to consume fluids. Maybe try to focus on water and TINY sips. If you can't get that to happen within the next day or so you prob need to call your dr because of the risk of hydration. Keep in mind everything tasted sooooo gross to me the first 3-4 days;(---but persistence pays off. Hang in there sweetie!
  7. Whoohooo!!! Can't wait to get to that exact place!

    TUMS?

    8 days post-op--- tried a new soup and now I am burping up acid:(.... Anyone know of I can take a tums?
  10. Well now your fully hydrated!! So, try your best Glad you went in!
  11. My calories r super low--- somehow I don't think that can be good for us. ;(
  12. I'm about with you and I'm only 6 days post op-- maybe try to up the protein. I know it's tough!!! I hate all the sweet artificial flavored crap!!! My God send has been the unflavored Sytrax Nextar. I now do 2 coups per 1 cup of liquids which gives me 20g a protein. If you haven't tried it, I will send you some;)--- really! At least so you can try before u buy. Call your surgeon or NUT -- they need to help you through this;)
  13. I'm no expert--- but I read a few times on here if your not getting all your protein in you will not lose. Are you getting all your protein in? Sorry your struggling...don't give up!
  14. Enjoy;)- but def make her do the work!

    post op diet

    Yes, I have had them. Today was my first day of relief. Praying no headache tmrw as well.
  17. I've read before that once you get your protein intake higher your energy will increase. Your so lucky your not having issues getting fluids in! I wish!!!
  18. Post in the general post op section, and I know there will be others who have had similar experiences. I'm so sorry your going through this--- I feel overwhelmed enough with my small bumps in the road, I can't imagine how your feeling. Keep your head up sweetie!
  19. Firelle--- I took 4 tsp of children's Tylenol and it helped a lot. Other than that I haven't taken any pain meds since day1---- they made me tooo nauseous.
  20. I'm 3 days post op-- anyone have severe sore throat still? Sooo painful!!!
