so I did it, I got it done, then instantly regretted it when I woke up, all my meds are screwed up because of the lacking a tummy deal and I'm just so tired and gassy. Food isn't an issue though, I've smelt it, seen it, around it, no temptation to eat, just gotta remind myself I'll be eating normal healthy food and it's fine. I'm just blah, maybe it's because the pain meds are wearing off who knows but the nurses where I went sucked, at least one did like wicked rude, stuck with a roomie that talked **** about me, almost went off but was too out of it. Blah It's still new, we'll see. Positive note, I'm off two of my meds already, but had to add a few more for the time being

Immediate post op sucks.  Take care of yourself and use this time to make good habits:)  Happy convalescing.

My surgeon took my off my lasix and my blood pressure meds, but I'm on Zantac and temporarily on lovenox shots until my blood thinners are regular

Thank you!  How long do you usually have to be on lovonox or blood thinners?
