5 Days Post Op...

[Carissa26 3]

I'm having trouble getting my Protein. I can maybe stomach 12 ounces of Protein Shake in a day. Maybe two bottles of water... I just took my Vitamins, which are chewable, and the chewing was making me extremely nauseous. I'm not in any pain- just worried I'm not taking in enough. Am I normal? Lol

You are totally normal. Our inside are still so swollen so soon after surgery so it makes it hard to drink. I am almost a month out and I am finally able to drink the adequate amount of Fluid that I am supposed it. Take it slow & it will get better over time.

I was the same the week after surgery. I called my clinic and they said not to worry about it right now. Just stay hydrated and eat what you can and walk.

Good to hear. Today was my first day feeling nauseous... Not a fun feeling.
