4 days out and doing well
Well, I'm four days post-op. Today's Friday, and surgery was Monday. Already off 3 out of 5 diabetes meds. Sugars 112-130, mostly below 120! Only one of the laparascopic incisions hurts, but I can't complain. Moving around a lot, lots of walking.
Biggest challenge is how/what/when to eat/drink. Full liquid diet - soups, pudding, yogurt, protein shakes. Yesterday was 300 calories, 35 protein and only about 32 ounces of liquid. When I take too big a swallow, things ... get stuck. Hurts like hell for a minute, then it passes.
First follow-up appt on Tuesday.
