  Home from the hospital and feeling lousy......
Hi everyone! I got home from the hospital on thursday after being there for 4 days. I should have been out sooner but I was unable to get in all the fluids they wanted me to drink. I wasn't throwing them back up, I just wasnt getting enough in, so they kept me there on an IV. Now that I am home I feel a little less like a piece of roadkill everyday but still in rough shape. I can litterally hear the air in my stomach and bowels bubbling through several times a day. And I cannot push enough to get a good bowel movement on the toilet. (Sorry if TMI). I pray that I could have something other than a CIB or water. I did have an egg once and that was just okay. I want soup, tomato soup, or chix noodle. Why is that such a bad idea? I am calling my nutritionist on monday. I am having a tough time getting all my fluids in still, I dont think I am getting dehydrated but I know I only take in just over half the fluid I should. I just cant force anymore in, its painful. Anyone else with these issues? I want to chuck the CIB's and have four small meals like, yogurt, soup, applesauce, etc.. Why is that bad if it has protein, low sugar, and is mushy. Can I get some feedback, I am feeling pretty anxious and grumpy.  |
I'm sorry to hear that you feel like crap. But I promise it will get better. The first week is really rough, after that it's all downhill... how about some chicken bullion for soup. They told me that was ok right at of surgery. You have to take super small sips of everything so it's really hard to get everything that your supposed to in, sip, sip, sip all day!!!

Yes i agree the first week wont be easy, your still adjusting to allot of things, but it will only get better from now on, the worst part is over (actual surgery) so it will jus get better.
Take care =)
