    Advice please?!

    Just remember this process takes time,listen to your Dr,do not be afraid to ask for something for pain,with me i had a pain pump,and it work wonders,get up and move as soon as the Dr. clear you,walk around the nurses station at lease every two hours.most of all say a prayer before you go in,you will be ok..

    Just sleeved today!'

    Did they give you the pain pump? Try to get your rest,and if you don't have the pump make sure they giving you your meds on time,because the way they will give it to you is when you ask for it..

    4 days out... Frustrated

    It will get better the two weeks is the hardest,once you get through those first two weeks it will be better, please listen to your Dr. and follow your phases,because you don't want to get sick,just try to flush as much fluids as u can,because on my first posp-op they had to give me iv fluids in the office,and also don't do your weight everyday,only once a week i know it's hard,when u start your second phase u will notice a weight drop so pay the scale no mine,because it's only water,stay encourage,trust me it will get better :)Also i find the timer helps me it reminds you to drink and eat , and i feel you on jello i will not eat jello for the rest of my life lol..
