getnsknyntx 11 Posted September 26, 2012 Doing pretty good. Some pain but am getting pain meds as often as I can. Walking pretty good. Can't have liquids until I have an upper gi in the morning to check for leaks. Dry mouth is killing me but I'm managing.

Passed my upper GI at 8:30 and was in Clear Liquids. Dr said I have to drink 4 of those 1oz cups of Water in an hour... dis that now working in my Protein. If I can finish them I can go hone tonight. Found out that cold drinks cramp my sleeve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
