I had my staples taken out yesterday and what a relief.  I actually came home and laid down in my bed and slept on my right side for about an hour.  When I woke up I didn't feel all that great so I ate some Chicken soup that I got from the hospital.  Since then I have not felt well.  I haven't been getting sick.  I just have like this heavy feeling.  I have no energy what so ever.  Has this happened to anyone?  If I am feeling this way tomorrow, I am going back to the Dr.  I am just scared they will have to open me back up and I don't want that.  Does anyone have any input on this?  Thanks for all your help!!

I cant say that I felt awful afterwards but I hope that you are feeling much better tomorrow.  I will say a special prayer that God will lay his healing hands on you.  Good luck and God Bless.  (((hugs))) Liz

Hang in there Angie.  You had major surgery and it is even worse because you had open.  You will be tired....feel yucky, etc., but I promise it gets better ... and done day you will say that it was worth it all!

I still have good days and bad. Some days I feel like I could do it all and others I feel like I couldn't walk to the bathroom. When you said "heavy" feeling is it in your head/neck/arms if so for me that meant mt blood pressure was low. The Dr. took me off my meds Tues and I have slowly started to feel less heavy feeling. Hope that helps. P&PT's.

Thank you all.  I am feeling better.  I ate some chicken noodle soup (just the juice) and it made me start feeling better.  They heaviness is in my belly.  I think I either ate too much or there was something wrong with that soup from the hospital.  Needless to say, I am too scared to try it again.  I am looking forward to the day that I am feeling better.  Today is 2 weeks outs.  Compared to then I am feeling great.  Tried to lay on the couch but my chest feels so heavy.  So still stuck in the chair.  I am just taking it day by day right now.  But again thanks for all your input!  Again I love this site!!!
