Day one post op

So I had my surgery yesterday! My surgeon said everything went great. When i woke up my stomach was killing me! I kept falling asleep and waking up while in recovery..Today they started my liquid diet, but i have no desire to put anything in my mouth except these ice chips. They took away my PCA this morning so now im forced to drink liquid medicine for the pain. It is so nasty. And hardly WORKING. I walked last night, that was painful, and walked again not too long ago this morning..and felt a little better. But after my morning walk im feeling a little crappy again. :/

Hope your recovery goes smoothly. Walk...even if you dont feel like it, it really helps get rid of gas and will make you feel better. Hang in there, this is tough...but you are worth the effort!!

You'll need to rest, walk, sip....rest, walk, sip....keep repeating! Take the meds, dont try to be a hero.... be comfortable!

Good luck!! keep us posted!
