Hello All, I am back home from surgery on 3/17. Everything went fine. I am just tired and full of gas. I have been walking and it is moving, just not fast enough. I hope this gas passes soon. Other than that I really just feel the same. I am not hungry and not thirsty. Honestly, I have to remember to eat and drink. Right now I am on the stage 1 liquid diet, and I am just fine with that. I just need to get my energy back!

Me too...got home at about 1pm on Wednesday. I was having some amazing amounts of pain right after surgery, but that has let up greatly. Now I am just waiting for the gas to move on! I will feel like a new woman once I am able to get rid of the gas. My clear liquid diet has started. I am trying to be faithful to it, but I don't have much desire for it. I am pushing myself to drink water every time I think of it, I don't want to have to go back to the hospital because of dehydration! Well, congratulations to us for getting beyond the surgery. Now...on to the loser's bench! Becky

I know what you mean I got home from the hospital yesterday. My new enemy is GAS I hate it. If it wasn't for that right now I would feel awesome. My pain is down thanks to my liquid pain meds. I enjoy drinking when its something I like. I have found chicken broth is my favorite. what about everyone else?

Well that is great that everyone is doing great also.. I gota say ,..GAS was not a problem for me at all.... few burps and it was gone. I am only having pain in my back but thats cuz i havent worn a bra and my jugs are wieghin me down..lol... TMI...... and my drainege site is very sore,, kinda burns, but they gave me some good drugs and im doing good. Great job everyone though..oh and the liquid diet, is going good for me... im sipping a diet lemon snapple right now..and ohh its so good.. i dont even want food.. the only food i have smelled that makes me a bit woozy is greasy stuff.. i have been around everything and nothing makes me woozy at all ... so good luck everyone...
