Getting Closer!

Had my "last supper" last evening and made it worth it. Didn't go overboard really just made it something tasty that I may not have again for a while. Tomorrow first day of week long full liquid diet. It's getting so close now!! June 18th can't come soon enough!!

Hope that surgery went well and your first day of your new life is going well.

Thank you! My surgery went very well and I actually came home the evening after on 6/19th which was a pleasant surprise. Have you had your surgery already?

I had mine on the 21st. Was dismissed by the doctor early in the morning but didn't get out of there until 3:00pm. It was Saturday and the hospital had just switched to a new computer system that week so I feel like that was why. I had great care and I am feeling great. How are you getting along? Any troubles?

I'm doing okay. I thought being a 8 days out I would feel even better, but unfortunately I am struggling with muscle spasms which my doctor has me on flexeril for. Also having trouble staying hydrated due to frequent episodes of diarrhea after I eat or drink

Anything. I'm sorry if that's too much info for you. How are you?

I am doing really good. I went to the massage therapist yesterday because I had gotten a knot in my neck from the hospital bed and sleeping in the recliner the first night home. She had a chair I got on so it didn't put any pressure on my stomach and it was heavenly. I recommend it especially if you were going before and the massage therapist knows what is going on with you. I swear it also helped get rid of the last of my gas pains too. Hope you get to feeling better.

I keep reading about everyone being constipated and like you I am having diarrhea. Don't know if they are talking about a different stage than we are in but I am NOT constipated.
