4 days postop

[myfatisnotaflaw 33]

Hey!

So...it happened!

Now I'm sitting here going through the changes. The pain where the stomach was removed really sucks but it's tolerable.

When I sip I feel it going down. Sometimes it feels like it wants to come up...but if I just relax and breath it goes right down to my stomach. How long will that feeling last? Besides that and the pain in the area of ejection I'm actually OK. I went to the park today with my bff. Walked around a fee times and shot some hoops with my sons and husband.

Think I'll be ready for work Tuesday.

My calves are pretty sore too. Not painful though. When I was walking I felt it trying yo cramp...but they never did. I just walked it out. I really hope I'm getting the liquids I need to keep me hydrated.

Suggestions?

glad you are doing well.......your last sentence worried me a bit. You shouldn't have to "hope" you're getting enough Fluid. You should know. Are you keeping track of your Fluid intake? You should be. How much are you drinking?

The incision pain lasted about 2 weeks.

If I drank too fast or too much it hurt going down.

Take slow small sips

Make sure you take your Vitamins and reaching your Protein and liquid goals.
