Home from 10/29 Surgery



Recommended Posts

At the hospital Monday morning at 5:30 am. Wheeled to surgery at 7:30 am. Surgery was suppose to be about 3 hrs. Hubby not called back until 3:30pm. They had problem waking me up. My asthma kicked in and I had acute kidney failure. Didn't get up walking until Wed morning. Came home Thursday and soooo glad to be in my bed! The surgery pain is very minimal. Biggest issue is my back pain from sleeping on those damn hospital beds! So if it weren't for my complications things would have gone a whole lot easier!

Can't wait to start reaching some of my goals like tying shoes, fitting in a booth seat without having to test it to see if I fit before the hostess walks away, and of course buying smaller clothes sizes!

I feel pretty good right now. I’m walking a lot and doing what I can around the house. I am tired all the time and take two naps a day. One of my sites started leaking a lot so that has been annoying. I still have pain if I do too much or get up to fast but today I didn’t take anything for pain and was ok.

Glad to heal Lilly! That is progress :) I woke up a little sore today. Must of pushed a little to hard on my stroll last night. I am just getting cabin fever :( Feel like I am still sleeping a lot too but notice that is during the day and I am full of energy in the evenings and staying up pretty late. Have a friend that keeps reminding me my body needs sleep to heal.

Wishing us a an even better day today! :)

I’m feeling good right now but I am super tired. I get up at 5am and am up and as active as possible until about 10ish when I need a nap. Trying not to nap for more than an hour though. I do get a second wind around 8pm and am having trouble falling asleep. Today is the first day I’m actually hungry. My plan has me on liquids for another 6 days but I’m so ready to try an egg!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
