Did someone get the license plate of the truck?

I've walked enough to get my cather out within an hour after surgery. Did two more since. And numerous trips to pee.

Liquids are easy enough but jello and broth aren't happening yet.

More later.

If you can see the keyboard to post this soon after surgery, you are doing great.  Woo Hoo, keep it up and you will be home in no time.

 Congratulations, you are on the other side of surgery. No matter how bad now, the road will get easier, and you and Charles will be together in loser land! It's more fun than the name implies.

Welcome to the losers' bench! I am impressed that you could post this so soon after the procedure. Make sure to keep walking and use that spirometer thingie as much as you can handle. I am excited for you!

Take it easy.

 You're doing great Liz!

Send Charles out to any pharmacy that has homeopathic remedies.  I used a great product called Carbo Vegetabilis.  It's tiny little balls that you put under your tongue or a few into your drinking water.  I used it for both my Sleeve and Gallbladder surgeries and never had any gas.

I felt like I wa**** by a Mack truck after surgery. You are doing GREAT!!! It took me about 2-3 days, before I could even turn on my computer. Welcome to the loser's bench!!!
