When's over the hump day cuz I feel like crap



Recommended Posts

Day 5 post op and feeling not so hot. Anyone tell me when they started feeling better? I'm sick of drinking, tired, sore, and hate being around my family with food. Fri I can most likely switch to full liquids which will be a blessing. Any thoughts are greatly appreciated :)

Day 7 you'll be feeling much better - particularly with something more substantial in your stomach. Day 10/11, you'll be getting the hang of it. You might every so often say 'eh? Urrmm... That doesn't sit well'.. But you learn... By the mushie stage, the pain in your side will ease and you'll be free-wheeling down the road, ready to take on new and exciting challenges.. Like, erm, eating something with flavour and texture! Hang on in there, treacle. I believe this is a long ride, but a good one :) x

I started to feel much better around 6 days postop. Today I'm 11 days postop and each day it gets better and better! Hang in there!

Day 7 - I had a proper shower, washed my hair and put on make up :-) Took me two weeks to lie down in bed and that was another feelgood moment. Then there are staging posts with each phase of food when I felt better as I progressed through each one. There are little moments along the way but I actually felt like me again 4 weeks out...

Congratulations on taking the big leap and remember every day, no matter what happens to you - this too shall pass :-))))
