@abbyrn27. How does that Unjury taste? Are you mixing it with the power ade?

My hospital mixed it with lactose free skim milk (the chocolate kind) and I really liked it. It wasn't too sweet which I liked. I'm going to order some now that I know I like it. I also tried the chicken broth one and that was good too.

Just curious as to what others drinking today and for the next two days.

So far I'm only drinking Water. I've been slowly drinking my Protein shake. I am having trouble with the pain after I drink something. Do you have this problem too? It's taking me a whole day just to finish a bottle of Water I'm a bit worried about that

I'm having the same but I know people who didn't drink enough and had to go into the infusion center for iv fluids. So I've got myself on a good pain med schedule and trying to sip through the pain. What meds are you on?

@@abbyrn27 I'm taking protoix for reflux and Tylenol with codeine

[Gracy0721 63]

The Isopure tastes way to sweet for me today. I'm drinking Decaf unsweet tea and Gatorade G2. I ordered some Unjury to mix in drinks. I'm ready for some Protein shakes!! I came home with Protonix, Demerol and Phenerghan.

@gracy0721. Lucky! You got the good pain meds. the Tylenol they gave me is in liquid form and I have trouble getting that down

[Gracy0721 63]

That bites!! I hope you find something to give you some relief soon.

smcobos2 I am having trouble drinking Water because of my hernia repair my doctor told me I am swollen more than usual but eating popciles will help. After I eat a popcile I have able to drink thinker liquids. I have been drinking also propel water, crystal light, diet snapple, and sugar free Jell-O.

[abbyrn27 87]

Yeah rough going with just Tylenol with Codeine. I'm on oral dilaudid, gas drops, levecin for spasms and Tylenol if I need it. They also gave me valium for sleeping. I don't take drugs for even a headache so it's weird to have so many heavy hitters.

[Disciple 44]

abbyrn27 your right you need to stay on a good pain regime. That also has helped me.

[Disciple 44]

They gave me liquid Vicodin and Oxycodone. I also was given Flexril for spasms and Zofran for nausea. I am a RN so while I was in the hospital I made sure I got one a good pain regime before I left the hospital.

I'm a nurse too! I manage 3 departments in the hospital where my surgery was so I think I got a little VIP treatment. I was also very pleased with the pain med regime.

But the thing that has helped me the most is you guys! ♡♡♡ I feel like I am not alone. Or not doing it by myself! Thank you everyone!♡♡♡♡♡

[Disciple 44]

I agree abbyrn27. I had my surgery in one of the hospitals I work in and my daughter was impressed how well we were taken care of.

[VSGMama 12]

Well guys, my surgery was on Monday and I have had a rough couple of days. The first day actually went really well, was up walking 2 hours after surgery, got down some juice, Water, Jello. I went home Tuesday afternoon but got really sick Tuesday night. Threw up 3 times during the night and once this morning. I am feeling better today though. sleeping and walking all day as much as I can. I have not been able to get much down but that is improving now as well. I definitely felt really terrible last night though. Just have to keep reminding myself this will get better within a couple of days. Anyone else have any vomiting?

[Disciple 44]

I am sooooooo sorry. I can't imagine vomiting with type of surgery. I am glad your feeling better.
