KatInFL 216 Posted February 15, 2013 I made it to the Marriott and feeling so so. Very tried. My drain is okay not bothering too much. Ate just a little Soup. Going to rest and hope to feel even better tomorrow. Loves Tami Make sure you are listening to your body and resting plenty! I'm so glad that you're doing well. ~Kat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tami88 73 Posted February 15, 2013 Thank you all for your support. I get my drain out tomorrow and my leak test. I find it still hard to get liquids down. Just trying to take it super slow. I do feel better than yesterday but still sore on my left side and tired. Hope everyone is doing well! Btw: Dr. Ortiz has such an infectious smile. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
djsacco 32 Posted February 15, 2013 Take it slow! When you feel tired you rest. Once I made it home I couldn't sleep enough! Which says my body truly needed every bit of it. I guess all the anxiety and the travel finally caught up to me! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tami88 73 Posted February 18, 2013 Great for you I was in so much pain for 2 days straight after surgery! I was kicking myself asking what the heck have I done. There were some others that had it the same day as me (1/19/13) that had a very uneventful time time. Dizzy is very normal! You just had a major surgery. I still get dizzy some! How are you doing now?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
