5 days post op

[Linda9009 12]

All is good. my revision went smoothly- I walked the first day- slept like a hibernating bear too. the only pain I can really complain about was the headaches I had 3 nights in a row while at the hospital. Turns out I dont get on too well with that morphine drip. Day 3 starting liquids and have been just fine. Belly is sore from bending and stretching too much once I got home. Abdominal muscles feel really worked! I have enjoyed my couch nights- just me the tree lights and junky TV.

Not being dependant to drive does suck tho since I need to finish my Christmas Shopping, Also, I am wired at night- cant seem to fall asleep til like 4am. Not even tired during the day either, strange

Thanks everyone,I know your positive thoughts support and prayers were key in this very pleasant experience these first 5 days,

Nighty night my friends

Oh Linda it sounds like you are doing really well - that is awesome !!! I was a little headachy too the first few days, I think because of not eating but it goes away. Keep up with your fluids and protein....sip, sip, sip, sip all day long !!! Keep up the good work.

Linda so good to hear how well you are doing. I understand the not sleeping. I can't seem to stay asleep for very long and have the strangest dreams. I drove for the first time this morning (I am 13 days out) felt kinda weird but I made it back home and didn't hurt anybody lol. Wishing you continued healing and please keep sipping like BB said. You do not want to get dehydrated. Every day is a bit better for me and I find I am getting a handle on the fluids, Protein and Vitamins. Not perfect but better every day
