Hi all,

Just wanted to let everyone know that surgery on the 23rd went ok and I'm home. Having a slight problem with the pain since very few pain meds work on me but I'll muddle through. Boy does this distended gassy feeling suck..LOL They say walking helps to relieve that... I already have a path worn in the carpet around my house... LOL...

I'm doing good with sipping the juice and broths and eating the sugar free jello. I had half of an 11 oz protein shake tonight and had no problems with it. 

Hope everyone else is doing well.

Congrats on successful surgery.  I walked my tooshie off and it really did get rid of the gas by about my third day home.  The more I walked and the more I drank, the better it got.

GOOD LUCK!!
