Well I came home on Wed. Got home about noon. My daddy and step-mom picked me up asmy hubby had to work. She was awesome, she took care of me as if I were her own daughter....I'm so lucky! But anyway, sore and itchy, guess itchy is normal.... Man do I look like Mrs. Frankenstein!
I'm trying my best to get protein in but right now it's  hard to do!!! I have absolutely NO appetite. But I'm alternating between protein powder/skim milk and broth....
My stay at the hospital was great, the nurses were awesome. I hated getting the drain pulled...didn't hurt just WEIRD WEIRD sensation!!!
I go back to see Dr. Davidson next weds. and get staples out...yay!
I'm  sore but not excruciatingly sore.
well I'm still sorta fuzzy from the meds...will close for now. But thank you guys so  much for the thoughts and well wishes!

Congrats on getting surgery behind you and welcome to the losers bench! I have no appetite either and am having trouble getting my protein and water in but I keep trying every day.

hi everyone, still easing around. but it's getting easier. still very very hard to get ALL of the protein and water in!!!
I can add yogurt next week, what kind is the best? Is there actually sugar free yogurt?

I had lap. rny/6 holes....look like mrs. frankenstein!! will be so glad to get these staples out!

it's funny now, i can watch a food commercial....almost turns my stomach!!! Even a commercial for spaghetti and i loved spaghettie!!!
!!!that's all for now, thanks again for the kind words!
