Congrats on your surgery! Sounds as if your doing quite well.

So I’ve been told “you look great!” By all the nurses and my surgeon lol. I’ll be going home tomorrow thankfully. Tolerating fluids quite easily except now when I overdid it taking my paracetamol pills. Whoops!

Sounds like you did well! Tolerating fluids this early is a great sign. Hopefully it'll be an easy recovery.

That’s good to know! I drank 500ml of Water in a span of 6hours the day of surgery and was told to slow down! Fluids are going down well, I’m just a bit more swollen today so burping more after each sip. But I get to try some yoghurt today :)). Hoping it doesn’t make me ill!

To give you an idea I had no fluids the day of, the next day I had a couple of ounces maximum and was drinking from medicine cups. It got a little better after, but I was having a couple cups a day until about a week out, then I started to get close to the Fluid goal. After 10 - 12 days I was hitting it consistently... so you're doing great!
