I'm 3 days post-op (and a brand new poster!), am home from the hospital, and feel like I'm doing pretty well aside from these ridiculous hiccups I can't seem to get rid of! Pain-wise, I don't think my surgeon's office gave me a high enough dosage, so when these hiccups kick in, I literally want to saw out the middle section of my body.
I'm following my nutritionist's guidelines as to Protein shakes/water intake and when and how much I should be drinking. I can't tell when I'm full or not yet, but have read on here that hiccups can usually mean you're full. I'm going to talk to my nutritionist about the Fluid intake and being full on Monday, but in the meantime, does anyone have any tricks to getting the hiccups to stop? I've read pushing the pressure point above your nose, holding your breath, etc, but those don't seem to be working. If I could stuff a spoon full of sugar in my mouth, I would!
Thank you for any help you may have
