My Big Day 3/15/2011 4 Posted March 18, 2011 I am doing okay...came home from the hospital today. Had lots of nausea yesterday which kept me feeling pretty lousy and I had to stay until I got that under control. I have been home since 1230 and nausea has subsided. I have considerable pain on my left side where the largest incision is where they remove the stomach. I am eating Clear liquids...jello goes down easy and room temperature Water. I have no hunger pain! I fell my stomach rumbling but without the hunger feeling. I am looking forward to a good nights rest in my own bed. The gas-x strips were a life saver...I never even asked the doctor if I could take them...just went ahead and started taking them and felt so much better. If you think of anything else you want to know then just get back to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Margaret 4 Posted March 18, 2011 Congratulations to you! It sounds as if you're doing pretty well for someone who's had surgery of any kind! My insurance co has had my final paperwork for 2 weeks now. And so I wait-----I'm so anxious to have this done! Did you have to stay 2 nights at the hospital? I'm sending you all good wishes for a more comfortable day today! I am doing okay...came home from the hospital today.
