Cherry 71 Posted April 16, 2013 My surgery is 2 hours away. I would have driven myself there but then didn't know what LOL. I probably would have driven myself home LOL but clearly that's not safe. But once I get home, I am on my own with everything and my pain & health, thus why I am getting a ton done this week. You are not alone my friend!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrsLulu 69 Posted April 17, 2013 Feeling much better on day 2 and 3. Day 1 was tough. My morphine pump messed up throughout the night and stopped working so I was med-free for awhile and in a lot of pain. Once that was under control, I was doing better. Coughing hurts, but using a pillow and having one leg off the bed helps. Hope y'all are well. 1 Cherry reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Day 1 was hell all I wanted to do was sleep so I couldn't feel pain and that coughing was horrible. You feel like you need to throw up but all you are doing is dry heaving lol. The 2nd day wasn't too bad and today being my 3rd dayI I feel 89% better my stomach isnt too sore but still painful getting up and out of bed for walking or going to the bathroom. So happy you are going through everything at the same time! 1 Cherry reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hockeymumzie 181 Posted April 17, 2013 That's awesome! How much weight have you lost during post op so far and are you still sore? I have not weighed myself. I'm still retaining so much Water so why look yet. Plus the scale is under the bed and i can not bend over drs orders, husband is at work and kids are at school so no way of reaching it. No pain just some soreness. Joined the losers side 4/11/2013 1 coolnessa22 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joined the losers side 4/11/2013[/quote'] Yea same here feeling very bloated and can hardly bend. I feel you...I might wait a while till I weigh myself so I don't get discouraged or too excited cause I lost 5lbs and then weigh myself again and notice I have not lost anything. 1 hockeymumzie reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
