I saw my doctor today for my 1 week post-op and he thinks I am not getting enough fluid. So I am now drinking 80 fluid oz. I do feel some what better.
I also am able to eat mushies YEAH. I think that will give me more energy.
I did use the a laxative and feel so much better, but I do for see having to add some sort of fiber to my diet so I can be more regular. I hate laxatives. I read on this site that there are metamucil wafers that they eat everyday. So I will add that when I can eat food.
This was my one weak post-op and I lost 9 lbs. I know that will slow down alot, but I was really happy. So maybe I have been weak from lack of food.
Now that I can start mushies, I hope to feel better. I will keep everyone posted.
So WEAK! No Energy! Help
