Well I cant believe I did this !!!!!!!!!! I dont want to freak any one out, but it was the worst pain I ever felt post op for about 10 minutes than thats it ? KIND OF WIERD. The surgery is no joke , but after that waking up bs was over with and the nurses figuered out what to give me the pain part was kind of non existant. After day one they take the auto pump away lol. But honestly you dont need any more or at least I didnt .I use the percocets to sleep at night thats about it, not for pain. On to day two the dreaded test, I had no trouble with that, the consistancy of liquid is gross but doable so off to liquids, Liquids went well I passed so far so good next the tray of pureed foods no go I got so nauseous of course I started to cry , lol cant help it hate to puke but the nurses taught me a trick when you feel nauseous smell an alcahol prep and it kills it right there. So instead of going home they keep me one extra day. At 300am in the middle of nowhere I decide to sip a medicine cup of water and bam nausea again so I cried again lol but I didnt vomit. and day three tried more pureed foods and did better. So today is day 4 I am proud of myself I drank all day hit my 65 ounces had an entire can of tomato soup at one time, then I dont want to sound gross right to the camode. Everything I have goes right through me , but no complaints , had over 40 grams of protein and wound up back in the freakin ER. My leg blew up and was killing me it turns out its a superficial clot not the kind that can kill you so they say , hope not . Its been quite a few days my god im glad its done. does anyone out there think its wierd I can drink so much. Its mostly liquids I take in the pureed food is like a teaspoon and a half at a time but idn, any input would be much appreciated.
