Hi, I'm 5 day post op and have ZERO energy. On a clear liquid diet until Tues, complete with a min 60 grams of protein from shakes. I am now able to get 60-70 g protein daily and drinking all the water I can tolerate.. I also have 1/2 cup diluted 100% grape juice to get some carbs. Is it normal to be WIPED OUT even after naps and the daily recommended protein and water?? I almost feel weak like I have the flu but know I don't.

SO excited for you!! Some quick advise based on my surgery experience (if you don't mind)...if you are typically nauseated after any surgery make sure to tell them so they give you extra meds before and after surgery to minimize vomiting risk. I did, but still vomited twice and it was not fun. And don't worry if you can't get enough liquids down 24 hrs aftercoming out of surgery, it will get easier the following days! You got this!!! -

1/31!! Doing well, definitely need to take drinks slowly. Second and third day had a lot of stomach cramps with each sip. Today much better, but I have zero energy! Hope that changes soon. How about you?? -
