What Do They Mean?

Wish I could figure out and differentiate all these new sensations I have. Pressure, tightness, burning....all that come and go. Sometimes related to eating, sometimes two hours later. Sometimes when I change positions. I'm POD 6 and I find I'm feeling tighter and feel like drinking less. Frustrated. I see the NP tomorrow morning.

Just follow the guidelines your doctor gave u and sip small amoiunts of Water as often as u can, good luck with the appointment and write down what u need to ask.. i am sure it will all be ok

I just realised that POD 6 is post op day 6 ? if so what are u eating ? surely u are on liquids at the moment

I am on full liquids until Friday. Even small sips feel like a challenge sometimes.

It will get better and probably in a few weeks u will wish you had that restriction back .. just follow the doctors rules and u should be ok

She thinks most of what I am feeling is heartburn. Gave me a script which I should have received in the hospital. They are advancing my diet to pureed. No worries on their end. In fact, I woke up feeling a lot better this morning.
