1st week post op

(so I'm still 1 week late so here it is)

ok so 1st week post op and still on broths and sf popsicles. I have some pain and discomfort and I've noticed the couch is not helping my pain and discomfort so I have a nice and comfortable chair in my living room and I asked my husband to move into master suite so I can swap from my bed to the comfortable chair. Also the dr. wrote a prescription for the pain and it taste like crap, nasty :biggrin:. I can't stand liquid medicine but this makes the pain go away though it makes you feel sleepy and dopey. I'm trying to walk in the house to move, I'm bored of going from bed to nice comfortable chair but this is the best I can do for now. I can't wait to be out and about, riding my bike, walking my dogs and etc.

I understand what you mean. I was banded on March 23. I am so ready to get out and about. Miss playing with my dogs. MY tummy has been making all kinds of noises, has yours?

Yes I went for a slow bike ride the other day and it was a gorgeous day and I couldn't pass it and my dogs miss the walks. I took it real slow at first and 1/2 a block later my husband rollerbladed with both dogs since they were so anxious to get out and about. I took my sweet time and enjoy the fresh air, being out and about on my bike it felt great ;). Yes my tummy is making all kinds of noises, I've checked with my friend she is 15 months post op and she said its normal you'll hear your liquids go down I had my husband listen to my tummy when i drank my water and crystal lite.
