ProudGrammy 8,322 Posted February 27, 2014 (edited) excited and Nervous. . wedding sat. Advice for me for after surgery next week??? Amy surgery in 4 days???? its perfectly normal to be dealing with different emotions post op........ you just had major surgery - take it slow!!!!! if you have gas, walk and walk some more in the hospitaal sip Water sllllowly at home, rest as much as you can if you have kids, tell them to go run around the block for one week going to stand up in a wedding a few days post op some people feel fine in a few days, even go back to work hopefully you will be feeling ok drink only liquids no champagne though docs usually tell you to wait "at least" a few weeks - or maybe up to 6 months before alcohol is allowed the one thing we have in common is that we're/docs-NUTS are all different always listen to YOUR doc/NUT good luck speedy recovery kathy Edited February 27, 2014 by proudgrammy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
