2 days post op and off pain meds

[dpuppa98 8]

I'm currently ending my second day PO and have not needed pain meds all day. Meeting my fluid goals without issue. My new stomach is not afraid to let me know when I am being too aggressive. For those having trouble with their Protein Shakes try the nectar brand. I am taking 4 per day in FF milk as recommended by my NUT. Sipping 2 to 3 oz every 15 minutes till gone. Gatorade and SF Popsicles in between with the odd SF fudgesicle thrown in for good measure.

Feeling good.

Good for you! I stopped my pain meds about 2 days out also, other than taking some before bed. Today is day 9 post-op for me. Been reading good things about the nectar Protein. I think I will order some of their sample packs to try flavors. Do you have any favorites?

Yes, I too didn't take medicine for pain after discharge due to job issue, but really would have loved to have some for about a week.It hurt like hell and I was vomiting from the pain mostly I think. Well, I toughed it out and made it.
