I'm back!

Couldn't sleep and sitting at the computer is a little more comfortable then the last couple of days. Thanks to tinkerbell for keeping you all posted and to all of you for the well wishes.

I was doing pretty good, but hit a bump in the road today with feeling icky. Not sure if it's because I didn't take any pain meds or things are just trying to find a place to settle into. My mood was taking a nose dive too, but after reading some posts here I feel a little better. Maybe I'm not walking enough to get the gas out of my tummy. Although I did have a bm today so you'd think that would help. Well tomorrow's another day!

Becky,
They said this would be a wild ride!  It's funny, I felt a little icky last night too!  A little nauseous.  But, I just sat up and watched TV.  It did help to lay on the couch for me after a bit.  I have been getting some nice walks in and boy has the gas been rumbling.  I wonder if I have became lactose intolerant.  I need to figure that out. 

I am going to get out of the house today.  Hope you are feeling better! 

Hi Becky...I am 4 days out and felt kinda yucky last night. My tummy's rummbling from gas, and I have had watery stools since i left the hospital. Not all day long--about 2-3 times per day. Will have to ask the Dr. at my appt. on Tuesday if that's normal.  I wanted to get out today and go to Maple Grove coffee, but don't think that's going to happen. Still on the pain meds and can't drive  yet.

I too think I should be walking more. I take the puppy out in the yard a few times each day and try to walk around the house for a while every hour. I am not sure how much walking they want. I don't want to overdo it either.


I hope you have a good weekend and feel better soon!

Congrats on your surgery! Glad that you are home and things went well.

Sorry that you had a rough day. You will have your ups and downs but I believe that you will have more up days then downs. In the beginning its a little hard. Each time you are a little down just jump on the boards I'm sure someone will make you smile.

Wishing you all the best.

Welcome back!
Was wonderful to talk to you on the phone. I know your fustrated,when ya get down or something give me a call. I am usually good for a laugh or two LOL.
Take care, Support meeting is this coming Tuesday!

You kill me woman!

Thanks all!

I had a much, much better day today. Got out to enjoy the beautiful weather, worked with our new dog, walked around the block a few times, & made 8 pints of refrigerator pickles.

You will be feeling better in no time! There is alot of gas that will cause some discomfort.  Happy Healing
