schwanguysgal 0 Posted June 29, 2011 Surgery went well. Pain was horrible and had some nausea so they kept me til 10pm. Went and got meds at pharmacy after left hospital and the pharmacist gave my husband a spoon to use for the meds. Unfortunately he just figured out that is it tsp not tbsp so I have been in excrusiating pain all night and day. He just gave me the correct dose so hopefully I will be in drug heaven soon!

I feel the same way as you do, i have been in a great deal of pain since leaving the hospital. I took some of the liquid lortab but i dont think it helped that much. Heres to hoping we both start to feel better real soon! Actually today hasnt been that bad, its just standing up, then sitting down that hurts like hell.

schwanguysgal 0 Posted June 30, 2011 Sorry you have been hurting! Since we got the med situation under control I have been feeling much better. I have had a lot of nauesa though so I have been taking the Zofran. I called my drs office today and asked if I could take something else for pain and they said I could take liquid ibuprophen so I have been taking that every 4 hours as well. I haven't been able to eat much and I have been a little worried about that. I'm gonna start another topic about that and get some advice. I was able to eat about 1/4 cup of my protien shake and about a cup of broth. I also had about 3 small spoons of Jello. Hopefully tomorrow will be better. I know I'm not getting enough liquids in. Let me know how you are. I am so excited I have a friend going through this with me. Talk to you tomorrow. sleep well!
