I am home
I am so happy to be at home. My surgery went amazingly. The only thing I could even complain about was nothing by mouth for 24 hours after sugery.
I am almost a week out and the only complications that I have had was some vomitting and dry heaves my second night out. I was in the ER for intrav. fluids. My doctor believes that my oral pain meds were a little too much for my new pouch and now I have pain killer through a little patch on my arm. No nausea now. I dont even mind the liquid diet, which I do get to supplement on Wed. with eggs, cottage cheese etc.
Oh an another thing, anyone who is a stomach sleeper should really try sleeping on their back for a while before surgery, because it makes for a restless night :(
