Thank you. How are you feeling? Your a few days post op right?

Thank you. How are you feeling? Your a few days post op right?

I'm 3 days postop and I feel really good. Just trying to get my fluids in which is a bit of a challenge. The first maybe 24-36 hours I was having nausea, but I had none yesterday. Every sip I take, I get grumble guts (that's what I'm calling it). Just a lot of noise your body makes when you drink. Today I go back to the doctor to get my drain removed and have a leak test. I put a sad face because even though the drain is slightly uncomfortable, that's my safety net that everything's ok in there because I can see the Fluid in the drain is a good color. I know- I'm the only crazy one who wants to keep the drain in longer!

Glad to hear you're ok! You will feel rough for a few days, I am on day 5 and feel like I'm just beginning to turn a corner. Hang on in there!

Thanks Natalie .. I woke up was my first concern and once I dislodge this gassy wind it should improve as I cannot sleep on my right .. Hope your progressing ok too

I'm a side sleeper too and I found that for the first few days if I rolled a spare duvet up on my right side and kind of rested on that, it was the most comfortable way of sleeping. If you don't have a spare duvet a pillow or two may work the same. Had my first full night's sleep last night and it was wonderful!

Well this time tomorrow I will be in the OR WOW I can't believe I'm only 24hrs away it's been a long but short trip I started my journey in July and 3 months later I'm ready for surgery can't believe it

I'm just doing what my NUT told me

shakes throughout the day' date=' unlimited leafy greens (lettuce, kale, broccoli), calorie free dressing, and Water. I'm also drinking Isopure zero carb Protein drinks. I'm sure it will probably slow down as I keep going.

Do you get any cramps from the Isopure Protein Drinks? Certain flavors have done that to me. My stomach would cramp so bad that I would have to go to the bathroom. Just curious if it has happened to you! What flavors have you tried and liked?

[SuperKen 231]

Wow there are quite a few of us with the October 14th surgery date! Lets go October Sleevers!!!
