Thanks. It's nice to know I'm not alone. I am taking anti nausea. But it doesn't help with the pain. I guess I'll have to take it one day at a time. I just feel like I'm not following all the rules. My being so tired has effected my walking.

So, I'm 5 days post-op and I am so tired still. I have to drag myself to get up and walk. I'm constantly having tightness and pain in my chest. I'm having a hard time drinking my fluids because its so painful and I have no desire to drink anything. I'm getting in my 64oz but I'm forcing myself. Good news is I am not hungry so I don't miss anything. But I feel so ill. Even the smallest amount of Water or Protein shake makes me want to puke. And I have zero energy. Is this normal??? 9 pounds down since surgery

I didn't need much at all. But besides toiletries, I recommend your own pillow, lip balm, a hair scrunchie, some slippers and a robe and my husband surprised me with my favorite blanket. This definitely helped. And if your spouse is staying over night with you, some slippers for them too. When I couldn't sleep, I would walk and my husband would get up, slip on his slippers and walk with me.
