txbucki 49 Posted June 26, 2013 Surgery was Monday at 8 am. Only took 1hr 20 min. dr said it went fast as all was good. Took pain Med only till Tuesday at 5 am. They took drain out and then was released Tuesday and home by 6 pm. Slept well most of night on both sides...I do not sleep well on my back......up most of today, gas is around but walking helps......not overly thirsty so hard to get all liquids in....so far did 1/2 bottle of Water, 1/2 sugar free Popsicle, a few bites of Jello and lots of ice chips. Not in pain but certainly tender. Everyday I hope keeps getting better. But so far it's been expected. 4 SheWins1, VSGKirk, WillInAtlanta and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rox 200 Posted June 26, 2013 The first week after surgery I don't think anyone can ingest the recommended amount of liquid - but it sounds like you're doing great. As you know,by reading this forum, it gets better every day Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
