AutismMom 92 Posted June 20, 2013 I had surgery Monday 17th. Tuesday I slept and had a swallow study. Wed. I did Clear Liquids. Today I added thicker liquids, had my drain removed, and am on my way home. I can hold down 3 oz an hour every hour. If I do 4 oz's then I have a hard time doing it again the next hour. I'm so excited to go home!! 7 Ms skinniness, abranewme, FeeIsMe2 and 4 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Susie in Lima 320 Posted June 20, 2013 Congrats! Cant wait to hear how you progress. Take it easy, walk as much as you can and focus on getting in your liquids. Don't get frustrated, just take things day by day and before you know it you will be approaching your goal! Hope your healing goes well! 2 Ms skinniness and jallen1242 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
