missygirl 0 Posted May 30, 2012 Everyone I have spoken to who is 9 days post surgery say they haven't been hungry. I do get hungry and am wondering if this is something bad. I have Protein Shakes like they say and am drinking plenty of Water, but I still get hungry. Has anyone else started with Soups or other soft foods this early?

Shilo30 16 Posted May 30, 2012 Are you sure it's not head hunger? I am 15 days post op and RARELY am hungry for real. I have probably been gurgly tummy hungry like 3 times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rootman 1,101 Posted May 30, 2012 Head hunger and possibly acid in the swollen reduced capacity stomach. First try a PPI like Nexium or Prilosec. Ask the doc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
