10 days post surgery and full of questions

[LonghornNiner 75]

Well it has now been 2 weeks since I had my surgery and everything seems to be going ok. Except for the kidney infection (anyone else get one of these after surgery), I have been feeling ok. I was wondering if anyone else had an issue with being afraid to drink or eat anything after surgery? I seem to have built up this fear and now I seem to be stuck in place with no idea how to move forward. My doctor is unavailable for a least a month as well as the surgeon who did the surgery so information is something I have had to get from online sources. Any help will be much appreciated

I am also aware that soft foods may be eaten starting week 3 but not sure what qualifies as soft food as many websites tend to contradict each other. Any pointers from seasoned members is also appreciated Getting enough Protein seems to be my biggest issue since Protein shakes have never really been something I have liked.

I am very postitive and look forward to meeting people on this great site. Thanks and have a great day!

some soft foods that you could try are refried Beans, yogurt, sf pudding, basically anything that is pureed.< /p>

I lived on homemade Soups and Greek yogurt in the beginning, also try Protein Shakes just take everything SLOW. Good luck!

I bought the Unjury chicken flavor Protein and the unflavored protein to add to Soups. It's a good way to get in Proteins without the shakes since you don't like Protein Shakes. Good luck.
