justaboop 6 Posted October 19, 2012 Wow Honey that is great, I went for a 10 minute walk. I think I just need to catch up on some sleep, my 1st night I was monitored every 2 hrs because of my blood pressure. I am drinking Water but I need to drink more and had a Protein Shake today. Keep up the good work Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jillb 45 Posted October 19, 2012 I feel great too.. my surgery was on the 17th... 2 days ago. I am sore of course but otherwise doing great. I took a heating pad with me to the hospital and I am amazed at how much it has helped me. For those who are about to be sleeved. Take a heating pad and lay on it...... it helps sooooo much. 1 chad2rad reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
imworthit 156 Posted October 20, 2012 I feel so out of it and sluggish I had surgery on rhe 18th and came home the day after. Any of you on Tylenol with codeine I think that's why I feel this way trying not to take anymore because the pain is bearable. I can't wait to feel normal again. On what day were you able to get your liquids in? I Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was also sleeved on the 17th I feel good other than a sore tummy. I wanted to know what did the heating pad do for you how did it make you feel. Have you been able to get in the 64oz of liquids b/c I haven't if so please tell me how you are doing it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jillb 45 Posted October 20, 2012 The heating pad relieved a lot of pain especially in my back. I am not comfortable on my back anyway. I just sip Water all day. Not thinking I am getting all of the liquid in but close. I have been able to tolerate all the liquids I have tried so far. I start today on a full liquid so we shall see how that goes. I am feeling good all things considered. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm glad I haven't been throwing up anything I have been downing SF Popsicles trying to get in fluids. I start full liquids on Monday still on Clear Liquids.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
justaboop 6 Posted October 20, 2012 Feeling better today, I think I let me paranoia get the best of me. Too nervous to take more than a sip of anything. Drank some Crystal Light which was great on my taste buds, today I am going to try Popsicles and some broth. I still have discomfort but I really try to not take the hydrocodone.
