Had surgery on Tuesday, the 16
Congrats on the surgery! It may take a couple of more days, everyone is different... if you're in pain, take your pain meds. Your body needs to rest & recuperate from this major surgery. Wishing you a speedy recovery! It gets so much better!

You just had major surgery - so a while :)
Make sure that you get your fluids in. Hydration is your #1 job. Nausea can be a result of dehydration. Hopefully you have pain meds to address the pain!

For me 1st week sucked. 2nd week a little better but still sucked. 3rd week was my turning point. I felt better but still lacked energy. The more I moved the better I felt. Went back to work after 1 month.
Just remember to move move move, and drink drink drink!
