9 days post op... ZERO ENERGY, TONS of soreness!
The first few weeks most folks feel like crudd. You'll have pain on the left side mostly as it heals. Really in about a month you'll start feeling "Normal" for what normal is for us. It takes awhile to get the antastia out of your system and to recoup from major surgery. Fluids is your primary goal and rest. Though you do need to try to do as much walking to heal and get out this surgery stuff out of your system. You can develope blood clots as you heal so keep moving also even though your tired. It gets better!
Hope you feel better soon. I am 8 days post op and I have a bit of energy, but I'm very short tempered and having a lot of "phantom" hunger cravings. I just want something solid to eat!
Have you walked at all? It takes all my energy, but I try to get in at least two short walks a day - and I always feel better afterwards.
