Dreams

[ANewMe83 21]

Are any of you having off the wall crazy dreams after you had your surgery? I have at least 3 dreams a night and I'm not getting any good rest.

I had a dream that my mom was feeding me Peanut Butter, I had a dream about a man falling in love with a robot, a dream about me eating an apple, a dream about me watching this really good movie ...and the list goes on!

Yes, me too. I think it's the pain meds. I had a dream that the post lady ran right into my car with hers and took off. My dreams are all over the map. Your not alone. I'm almost a week post op.

I'm three weeks post-op and it wasn't until just recently that the crazy dreams have gotten better... And I've been off the pain meds for two weeks now.

I'd say the most terrifying, besides being bizarre, of all the dreams was one a handful of nights ago where I had a dream my belly was literally tearing open at all of my incision sites. Slightly traumatic, haha. But I'm sleeping MUCH better and more soundly now!

I dont have crazy drrams, but I do sleep 200% better and I know there is a rhyme or reason for dreams and your sleep level.

Lots of weird dreams. Some seem so real that when I'm awake I wonder if it was a dream or memory. Confusing.

I had really strange, vivid dreams too. I think it's a combination of the pain meds and all the excitement and anxiety that comes with a life and body-altering surgery like this. it gets better. take it easy and take good care of yourself.
