Home from hospital

Just called doctors office. Loose stools is normal and can be for several months. Temperature is normal. Pain on a scale of ten is about a five. Brace left side when coughing. Will throw out liquid pain meds and that was causing the allergic reaction. Continue with liquid Benadryl. Stopping skim milk for today even though it is lactose free. PAC said I may not have an appetite for up to six months. Friend coming over to help me. 

Congratulations on a successful surgery!  So glad all went well for you!

Take care,

Kathy

Today's update. 7 days post op. Tolerating fluids.  No more pain meds due to allergic reaction. On blood thinner via injectable. Appetite flew bye-bye. My face looks much thinner but belly pretty bloated. Wish I had some additional beverages. My Amazon stuff arrived today:  Necter and matrix protein powders. Anyone knows when I can drive again?  Getting stir crazy. Next medical on 1/3/17. 

Not getting on the scale but I know on my heart I'm burning fat!

Fantastic update:  no more diabetic meds!  Call from doctors office. All my numbers are great. Good bye Toujeo!  Meds d/c in hospital were Jardiance and Victoza. Toujeo is a long acting insulin. Pre surgery I was on 30u once a day. After surgery 5u a day. Now no units a day! Now on to recovery and weight loss and greater health.
