Day2 after surgery.

[debsgallery 19]

Sore and hurts when I

Stand. First day had Isopure but did not get all my fluids in as I slept all day.

Going to discharge me so they gave me step 3 full liquid. No nausea no vomiting. So get to go home this afternoon.

Wow, I didn't get yogurt until a week out! Looks like you're doing great. I'm sure they're pumping you full of IV fluids, which will help make up for lower Fluid intake the first few days. Welcome to the other side!

Home now. Pain worsens. My dogs jumped on my stomach. Blood sugars high but doc says that's normal.

Congrats Deb! We had surgery on the same day - I agree the pain is a bit worse when you get home and even ditto on the dog... UGH - That was an er... EYE OPENER! Hope you're still doing great and have a fantastic weekend.

Thanks! I have less pain today and moving is easier. Also easier to eat bigger amounts. I feel a lot better but getting in all the Proteins is still not easy.

Keep walking at home and take the pain meds. It gets better around day 5. You can do this!

I think the Protein goals are unrealistic for the first couple of weeks. Based on what I've seen on this forum, I think most people are unable to meet their protein goals in the beginning. It should get easier, so just do the best you can for now and don't worry too much. The most important thing is to get enough fluids so you don't get dehydrated.
