Going Home!

[imlosingit 130]

Been here since Wednesday and Im finally going home! I am ready! The most challenging has been the small spasms and feeling my bowels become alive again. That trapped air feels horrific , today is much much better! I read on here to never trust a fart and you shouldn't, lol. Feeling pretty good tho, and Im jappy!!

Glad you are getting to go home. Try that heating pad for the spasms.. I have really found a new friend in my heating pad..lol

I know what you mean about the fart...lol They can be loaded!

Hope you feel better soon... I am jappy too! lol

Imabear- unfortunately it IS an issue... Carry a spare set of undies and wipes -__-

It's sad and gross but its a reality.

"Never trust a fart"

It's only right after for most but some it lasts thru the liquid only phases

Imabear - I have heard about this on this forum before, so it must be somewhat common. But it doesn't happen to everyone and it may well not happen to you! I was lucky.

[imlosingit 130]

I really think its just cause my bowels and everything is waking back up! Im not concerned it will be a long term issue!

[lessofmeismore 1,405]

Imlosingit- yes its only right after surgery. It's definitely not long lasting thank goodness hehe

[imlosingit 130]

[deltatrans44 32]

Mostly pouch tuna mixed with mayo relish and a lil gardiniera mix for a lil kick/grilled chicken/cottage cheese/greek oikos honey flavor yogurt/spinach/applesauce-mostly. And one Protein Shake per day :-) what about you?

[imlosingit 130]

I tried 1/2 a turkey meatball today with a dop of marinara and low fat cheese. Meatball mushed of course and it was good. Also string cheese
