Surgery is finished!

I got through surgery yesterday and I'm doing really well.

Disclaimer: This my 3rd surgery and I have a very high tolerance for pain.

I went in yesterday morning and everything went well. I came out of surgery extremely nauesious (sp?) but they gave my every possible thing and I never vomitted. I'm getting in all the fluids they want me to take.

I had one 30 bout of gas, but nothing after that - lots of burping.So far, this surgery is far easier than my gall bladder surgery, almost the same as my hysterectomy. I've been walking like crazy and before surgery I thought for sure I wouldn't want to walk. I was wrong. It feels really good to walk around.

I get to go on full liquids today and I'm gonna have a Beneprotein shake.

I've already taken 2 pills (very small) and it went very well.

Honestly, I don't feel a difference yet. But, I'm definitely not eating much and haven't felt any hunger at all.. 

I know things are different at home than at the hospital, but so far so good.

Thsnks for the prayers and well wishes.

yayyyyy! I thought the same thing! Much easier than my c-sections and a week out I am eating smooshy food now and have not vomited once (knock on wood) One food my body didn't like caused some tummy trouble but nothing too bad! 

Good Luck!
