CrissyBat 60 Posted April 15, 2015 Knock, Knock!!! Who's there? Me!!! I'm back!!!! Everyone I have been so out of whack not being able to get on here and get motivation. As soon as I returned from a visit home (3 hrs) away, my job sent me out of town. This has been a stressful 5 days. So how's everyone doing? I missed chatting with yall.

Jb1176 79 Posted April 15, 2015 Home today. Surgery was Monday. Day two of Clear Liquids. Walked evening of surgery three rounds around ward. Tuesday walked 30 rounds in three stages of ten rounds. Wednesday, release day, walked a mile in neighborhood. Gas pains are pretty severe and burping a lot. Walking definitely is the key to recovery. Haven't been able to get down more than a few ounces of clear broth. One more day of clear liquids and then 11 days of puréed food. First check with surgeon May 6. This is workable! Water retention is a problem. Came home 8 lbs heavier than when I went into the hospital. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fireflea 23 Posted April 15, 2015 I'm done! Sleeved with a hernia repair (I had no indication that I needed one). Ever this is going well. Sips..check Broth....check, pain...mostly under control. Thank you Dr. Billing and all the staff at PSSC! ????⭐️✔️????✅ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jennicarn 11 Posted April 16, 2015 Surgery in the morning. I did my Clear Liquids today, cleaned the house & wrote a 5000 word research paper for school. I am too tired to be nervous. See you all on the other side! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
