himalaya62 221 Posted February 7, 2013 I'm the same way except I never vomited although the morphine did make me nauseated. Once I stopped that I felt better. I'm drinking my first Protein Shake at home now but it's taking a long time to get it down. Just a lot of burping. Gosh my bed sure feels good!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lillatinmomie 62 Posted February 8, 2013 Well I'm finally on the losers bench . The surgery went well, they found the hernia and repaired it. I have no regrets at all. I'm not hungry, nor do I crave food. My mom passed by and had one of my fav dishes and I didn't even care I forgot until now. I have so much gas pain its to much. I have walked and walked and walked. Little by little it goes away. The morphine was a big help. No vomiting no nausa no itching thank God. I got one more night here and I'm going home can't wait. I pray tht everyone on here has a safe a speedy recoverery. :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
