I just got home from the hospital. Surgery went smooth. Gas pain is the worst part. But at least I'm home

Gotta keep moving. Walk around the house. Get up every 15 minutes and walk around for 5 minutes. Keep doing that. You’ll feel better

I have been doing good with walking. It does really help. I think the biggest challenge is getting all the Water down.

That was HARD. Just make it a job. Keep the Water next to you. And take a sip every 10 minutes or whatever you can tolerate. Just know that eating and drinking will be a chore for the next several months.

I have Water on me at all times. I was up walking most of the night. My wife stayed with me and between me getting up to pee every five minutes, and the people coming to take blood, bother of us got sleep. But, I'm really happy to not have to much pain. Just sore.

Update: everything went well today, was actually up and walking the halls about two hours after getting in my room. Don’t get me wrong the pain can be real. Especially the gas pain, but you know who told me what do when that happens? My WLC family here, so I got my butt up and started walking . It worked. Thank from the bottom of my heart... good night

So glad to hear it! Congratulations!
