Cindy82281 0 Posted October 29, 2009 Hey, I am glad to hear that you are doing so well. Unfortunately I am not doing so well. I have developed the flu on top of all of the pain from the surgery. Coughing is the worst part. I ended up having to stay an extra day in the hospital because I was running such a high fever and my heart rate was almost doubled. It seems like every little move I make just hurts so bad. I think if i weren't for having the flu, I probably would be doing better. I did have 5 incisions, the one in my belly botton and the one where my port are hurt the worst. Is anyone else having a hard time getting a lot of fluids in? I am sipping away, but just not getting too much in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

crazy77kristen 0 Posted October 29, 2009 I am doing pretty good so far. Today I went out grocery shopping with my mom for about 2 hours and feel fine. I am having a hard time getting all of my liquids in tho. I am really trying but it seems like I can only get about 30 oz. in each day. Today I'm having some tea and I bought some Kelloggs Protein Water, so hopefully that helps. I was feeling down during the grocery shopping, thinking about all of the foods I cant eat and how long it will be until I can. Being back at home with other things to do helps keep my mind off of that. Im happy to hear that we are all doing ok and as time goes on, we will feel great.
