Oh Paula,  it will get better.  Keep licking those popcicles.  I found them to be a lifesaver.  That and Sobe Lifewater 0 calorie in the Fugi Apple Pear flavor which tastes like watered down apple juice.  For whatever reason I found it to be very comforting. 

I'm glad you're able to take your meds.  I too loved the pain pump but I really wanted to come home 24 hours after surgery when the leak test was done.  By day three I was feeling so much better.

Please keep checking in with us.

Paula, you'll feel better as the days go by. Just keep trying to get your fluids and walk, walk, walk. Liz

Feeling much better today!  I called the doctor about taking my prilosec every 12 hours instead of 24 and feel like a whole new person because of it!  Looking forward to when all of this is just a distant memory!

Hi Paula, Glad you are feeling better today. I was worried about you last night, after reading about how bad you felt.  I'll have to remember to ask for the PPI (prilosec). I can't believe how close our stats are. I am at about 184-185 right down, with about 3 weeks until surgery.

Take care and keep us posted about how you are doing.
