kenb79 95 Posted October 13, 2014 Only 12 hours till I get to be at the hospital. I'm pretty nauseous as I've never had surgery before. Really excited to be turning the page on this new chapter in my life. V/r, Ken Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

itsmett 3 Posted October 13, 2014 You will do great! I had never had surgery either! It was easy peasy! After surgery I was very tired for a few days. Then everyday after was all up hill. Kudos to you for being the change you need! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kenb79 95 Posted October 15, 2014 Thanks for everyone's replies. I'm at my parents house resting now. We are making the trek back home today (3 hours from surgeon). I'm pretty sore and the combination of medicine is cumbersome and complex. I have to crush and dissolve Sucralfate, drink it 30 minutes before the Protein Shake. Then 30ml of hydrocodone. Twice a day I take the silate stool softener. Now I get to begin crushing and taking all my other med stuff too. Ugh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crystalsleeve 36 Posted October 15, 2014 How do the meds taste crushed? Do you mix them with any liquid in particular? And how much liquid do you mix it with? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kenb79 95 Posted October 15, 2014 Not too bad. Its just they want you to take each one mixed with Water. Thats a lot of Fluid. Not sure about mixing them up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
