michellej 2 Posted May 16, 2013 They just tell me to wait 4 hours. It's making it nearly impossible to get up and move around. Im just not being demanding enough surgery date: May 14 Ask for Toradol if you still have your IV. You have the right to be comfortable and not in pain!

DebbieG 262 Posted May 16, 2013 Lots of nausea yesterday. Every time I walked the halls, dry heaving would follow. Ugh!! But change a girl's meds and today is a new day filled with new possibilities! I'm doing much better. Now time for sip, walk, sip & walk! Got to try to get liquids down today - yesterday I was dehydrated. Let's do this!!!!
