I had surgery on 4-21; open rny. My liver was unusually large and they couldn't do it lap after they started. Anyway, after a very bad first few days, I'm feeling like a human. I am having a very difficult time getting in any amounts of anything; water, crystal light, whatever. I can take no more than 2 teaspoons of yogurt at a time and that's forcing it. I'm sure this will change soon enough. One question: Did anyone have hiccups afterwards? I had hiccups the entire time I was in the hospital and continue to occasionally have them. A nurse, who had had the surgery, said hiccups were common. Just curious. Liz
