Irene1970 8 Posted March 29, 2013 Yes it is. But did they give you morphine at the hospital? I didn't feel any pain until I got home. I just felt sore a little. Hang in there girlie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

donatelife36 27 Posted March 29, 2013 I am on my 3rd day post op and feel horrible!! Trapped gas is horrible! I am also feeling hungry! Is this normal?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Irene1970 8 Posted March 29, 2013 Yes its normal. Get up and walk when you feel that gas bubble and drink your Protein Shake that will take you're hunger away or your chicken broth.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
donatelife36 27 Posted March 30, 2013 I can't have Protein Shakes until I go back for my week follow up!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Irene1970 8 Posted March 30, 2013 What really?? That's weird but I guess every doctor is different. The Protein Shakes are to help the stomach heal from what they told me and to give me energy because if not you will feel really tired. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Colemon70 87 Posted March 30, 2013 That's awesome! I am 10 days post op! First 4 days were the hardest' date=' i kept thinking why did i do this to myself? What was I thinking??? I took no pain meds after 2:00 pm on the day of my surgery, once I was awake to tell my nurses to stop pushing it!!! Had nausea for first 4 days, but had meds that took it away!! No gas pains as I was up and walking a.s.a.p. ice chips and Water are all I really drank in the hospital, a little Decaf tea! I have lost 25 pounds!! 9 pre-op on my 6 day liquid diet and 19 post op! So I'm super excited about the results so far from 250 down to 225! Yay![/quote'] Great job!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
