Shellbell73 4 Posted May 20, 2012 Yah know I was scared before surgery but the day of a strange sort of calmness came over me. The first few days are gonna suck, make sure you have a good support system in place. Drink as much as you can but don't worry about getting the 64ozs they say your suppose to have that will come in time. I'm almost 6 weeks out and only get in 20 or 30 but my doc isn't worried. Take your pain meds when you need them (don't try and tuff it out) the less pain your in the move you feel like getting up and moving which is important (it will make you heal faster and get the gas out!!!) plus the meds will relax you to rest which is also important. All the post and people say walk,sip,rest. follow those words of advise. Some people feel great sooner than others.. don't stress it's not good for. You can ask literally anything here.o don't be afraid to. Good Luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
