Shae 44 Posted November 16, 2011 I don't think any of us can stress enough how important it is for you to walk and sip, walk and sip, walk and sip. It seems so simple that you're probably thinking "No Problem" but it is actually tougher than you think. Oh but it is worth it. I hope you have a speedy recovery. Keep us posted.

Ian 3 Posted November 17, 2011 I just arrived home, feels great to be laying on my own couch... over all things are not too bad i can get and walk on my own, roll from side to side in bed, and pretty much do a full sit-up to get up. still in a little pain, but right now its the spasms and gas that suck... i'm afraid to put anything in, although fluids are working ok... slow, but ok. 1 Debbie G. reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
