Yup had surgery last Wednesday came out of hospital yesterday little longer to recovery as wasn't drinking enough but feeling a lot better be prepared for gurgle noises in the stomach and try and walk around as much as u can to get rid of the gas. I diff don't feel hungry anymore and sometimes I have to remind myself to eat (liquard/purée diet) if u don't u will become rather lethargic so worth it I had my surgery done in Sydney at St George Private and so glad I did wouldn't change it!

good luck!!!!

U will find the gurgling sounds after the sugary I vomited once at the hospital and it hurt having nothing in my system I brought straws yesterday I find it easier to drink with them I have five cups a day Breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea and dinner to make sure I'm hydrated or u will pass out Like I did yesterday eeeek not long to go now :)

No, no straws they can add to the gas issue you will have after surgery!!! Besides after surgery you will only want ice chips!!! It helps with the chewing wanted and the dry mouth you will get!!! I wish I could still get ice like they have in the hospital!!! I love the ice chips!!!
