Applejenn did you start your liquid diet yet?

No my dr only requires a 2 day liquid diet

that's quite a difference from mine D: I'm on it for four weeks before surgery. I'm already a week into it. my surgeon said it would reduce the size of my liver, which will help with the surgery.

do you have any other dietary restrictions before your surgery?

I'm two days post-op and feeling great! I think the worst part is the gas pain. Another person I met gave me some gasx strips and they do help. I read somewhere on this site that it feels like you did a killer ab workout and I would have to agree. Not bad at all though!

I'm glad you are feeling great. Today is 5 days post op and I'm miserable. I can't get enough Protein down. After I drink I feel so full I could vomit. Maybe it has to do from throwing up so much the day I had surgery ... maybe I have additional swelling? I'm starting to think I made a mistake. .

I had surgery on May 2nd. First time ever having surgery of any kind. I told the anesthesiologist hai and he gave me all 3 medications and a patch behind my ear to wear for 4 days. I was in the hospital 2 nights and was miserably fighting nausea and pain, my first day home was Ok and it got a little better the next day. But today, way better and I slept so much better last night I think everyone must have that point to overcome the pain where it's like you've made it to be other side of the mountain. I hope yours comes sooner than later. I do imagine all the stress of vomiting so early after surgery has increased the duration of your pain. Praying for a speedy recovery.

I'm sorry you're still feeling yucky. I threw up a lot too the day of surgery and the entire night but definitely better last night. I haven't started on Protein yet and I'm barely drinking anything because I get such bad gas pains when I do. I've heard it gets better. Chin up!! The end results are going to make it all worth it!

Hey Everyone! How are you doing? I had my surgery on 5/2 and am feeling fantastic! Very little pain. Typical gas but walking helps. Here is information on a Facebook private group. It has been an amazing support system for me. Hope to see you there!
