Jeannette welsh 18 Posted April 5, 2013 That's actually a great question! You can have your nurse disconnect the IV to put your shirt on... Or just go with the hospital gown and wear pajama pants. Having an easy pair of slippers was nice too...you will be doing a bit of walking around. I was very sleepy must of the time, so enjoy the rest and be as comfy as possible Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hockeymumzie 181 Posted April 5, 2013 Went out and bought two recliners hoping to have them here before the 11th. Try the 15th. I won't be traveling home until the 14th so one day in the bed won't kill me. With me in such a rural area i basically have to order in things i need. Now just to try to make a shopping list for the last minute things which I'm sure i will forget a couple of things.

Krystal7k 243 Posted April 5, 2013 Add me to the April 15th list! Wooot Wooot!! I can say that sitting here wolfing down my broth' date=' SF peach Jello, and SF cranberry juice makes me wonder why I would ever guzzle burgers and fries the way I did. I still feel like I am hungry, but day 5 of the 14 day clear diet has me not starving anymore. Just having the hunger twinge for real tasting food. Anyone else doing that?[/quote'] Yaaay congratz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MissTiff 38 Posted April 5, 2013 Your temp usally rises slightly after surgery it did for me when I had my ten other surgerys Ah okay lol it seems to have gone now thankfully. I was able to sit up and get out of bed all on my own. They were shocked lol but then lightheaded and dizziness and nausea started. But I feel great! surgery date - Apr 5th/2013 9am 3 TxDumplin, Wendilou and Dorian reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jaye1464 70 Posted April 6, 2013 Hi, I'm new on here and my surgery date is April 13th. I did the 4 week liver shrinking diet so I start all liquids on Sunday. I was anxious about it because I've never had any type of surgery. I have a great doctor and a new support group and now you guys! It took years for me to decide, but here I am!

just4me 6 Posted April 6, 2013 Well I feel great! Knock on wood... Haven't had any trouble in recovery at home! Surgery was on April 2nd. I'm a little tender but no biggie. Tummy has gone way down from gas. Walk, sleep and eat. Finding it hard to drink so much.. Used to love Water, it now tastes like ammonia. I use those little crystal light squeezes .. Amazing. Protein Shakes with water.. But nasty. Everyone on phase 2 make theirs with skim milk or unsweetened silk or almond milk? So far so good! 4 skinnyjess2013, Dorian, Wendilou and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
