I had my surgery the day after you
I cried in the OR and had to be soothed by the whole team. I didn't know I would feel that way, wasn't sure it was the right choice, scared to die on the table for something I didn't NEED (I'm low bmi, no comorbidities other than gerd and some ankle pain).
Post op day 1 was bad
now I'm not even a week out and I feel totally fine. I really do. incisional pain is now just annoying, no nausea, able to eat my stuff today.
Cant bear the protein shake to be honest I just cant, I'm supposed to sip one throughout the day to bank that 20-30g protein but I just can't drink more than 1/2 of that without feeling miserable and gross. no nausea wise but i just don't bleeping like or want it i only want real foods (drinkable yogurt, homemade soup, home made apple sauce, tea, prune juice for constipation, water).
