3 weeks since surgery and doing good.

Hi, I'm new here and I'm going back to work tommrow after 3 weeks off! I'm a little worried about keeping things on schedule but I'm sure I'll make it. I still can't lay flat to sleep because my stomach is still too sore so I have to sleep in a recliner. Has anyone else had this problem? It's getting better little by little though. I've been lucky not to have had much nausea and no throwing up at all. My Dr. has me on very soft foods for the fIrst six weeks and I haven't cheated so I'm sure that helps. It sure will feel good to have a few more choices...three more weeks to go. Wish me luck!

Congrats on being this far out! Going back to work already? I have to go back after 2 weeks. I hope I can do it. I hope you feel well tomorrow and get thru the day with plenty of energy. I'll keep you in my prayers! ...Jill

I have lost 19 lbs so far. I wi**** were more but at least I'm loosing. The Dr. said I am right on schedule. It sure will be good to eat somewhat normal food again, I can't wait.

I had my surgery on 2-6 and I'm still sleeping in our living room recliner! I'm sick of it, but each of the three nights I tried the bed were just too painful. I can't wait to sleep in my own bed. So, I'm there with ya.
