4 Days Post Op
By Stae,
The doctor came in at about 8 on Thursday. He cleared me for liquids. YAY!!!! I was never so happy to drink a little water. I sipped all day. Even had a little broth and jello to go with it. The day went pretty quickly. I was really looking forward to going home. I walked and started having some pain in my right side. I am still having the pain, but I am looking forward to it going away.
I got the all clear to go home around 1 on Friday after I took the drink test to check for leaks. My husband brought the recliner down from upstairs and that has been where I hang out between walks around the house. I went upstairs to sleep the first night, but it was so hard to get in and out of the bed that I decided that night two would be better served in the recliner. I slept really well.
I am still in quite a bit of pain in my right side, but I am trying to work through it. The pain is only when I am up and moving. I think maybe I should have been moving more to prevent the pain. If it is not better tomorrow, I will call to doctor to make sure that there is nothing to worry about. I am working on getting all of my fluids in. That is a little hard. I just keep drinking as much as I can. Sip sip sip.... All day long. LOL. It is weird how I am not hungry at all. My husband is worried that I am not eating even though he knows the rules. I think that it is just weird to him.
Good luck to everyone. I go back to the doctor on the 5th. I will post my progress at that point. Hoping for a big loss.
