Yes it does..I'm 4 days post op and I can't get comfortable. I can lay down for a little, but then I get real uncomfortable. Then I sit up in bed for awhile and try to get comfortable. I have been ending up going and trying to sleep in my lazy boy, sometimes I can and sometimes I can't. Last night was a bad night, no matter what I did I couldn't get rid of my shoulder pain. I only slept about 2 1/2 hours total last night

I have been using the heating pad, taking gas-x, and walking..so I will keep on doing what I've been doing and hopefully it will start to get better.

I had my surgery on Friday and I still have really bad gas pain in my shoulder. Right now this is the worst part. I was just wondering how long it will last?

Thank you, good luck to you too!!

I've made to the other side...just left the hospital 15 mins ago...feeling kind of rough right now and so thirsty but l can't drink much at all without feeling sick. I know it will get better though!

Thank you!!

Today the big day!!! On my way to the hospital now!!!

Tomorrow is the big day..I'm getting excited My surgery is not until 2 pm and I can't have anything to eat or drink after midnight tonight The no eating is not a problem its the no water, but I will manage...I hope :S

Day three was hard for me still, but today is day six and I haven't had any problems!! It does get better, hang in there

GOOD LUCK!!

Im on my 3rd day and I've lost 5lbs also:-)Good luck to you!!!

So today is day 2 of my pre-op diet. I'm more hungry today then I was yesterday. But on a plus note, I've lost 4 lbs.

You would think that would work, but she would pry more..that's how she is..lol

Today was day one of my liquid diet, also. I have a headache and I'm a little hungry, but it hasn't been as bad as I thought it was going to be.

Myself, my husband, and my mom discussed it...my mom is helping me pay so she had to know. My mom kind of has a big mouth and told more people then I necessarily wanted to know. Ive told one person at work. My immediate boss is nosey and keeps asking what kind of surgery I'm having. I just keep responding I don't want to talk about it now, but I'll be ok.

Last Friday that it got approved

My Dr and nutrionist said we could take flinstone chewables..so that is what I'm doing.

My surgery date is 1/11. I'm getting excited, but also a little nervous...2013 is going to be a great year for all of us!!

Thanks for the input everyone..soup it is

I'm not sure. I'm alound to have yogurt, pudding, and jello, so maybe I can have soup. I have to call my drs office tomorrow for something else, so I can ask them...thank you, rats a great idea.
