Anyone heard from Anna Banana?
Hi Sarah,
I'm here and doing real well. I was discharged on Tuesday and went to stay with my daughter for several days. For anyone reading this, absolutely do not forget to ask your surgeon about gas pain after surgery and if you can have something to help rid yourself. I was joking with my husband telling him that from the belly button up I was absolutely fine - but from the belly button below I was extremely uncomfortable.
I have had absolutely zero problems with my pouch. The only thing has been the two times that I ate/drank too much. I somehow lost my mind and just was drinking a protein shake like pre-surgery and boy did I feel it- very uncomfortable sharp pain right below my left breast. Same thing happened with some cottage cheese- not sure if that stuff expands or what but wow. I haven't found anything at all that nauseates me. I did discover that what they say bout your tastes changing is true. I have always loved orange dreamsicles and when I made a shake with crystal light I was unable to drink it.
Thanks for checking up on me.
-Anne
