  1. I had surgery Friday morning 3/8/13

    I was told no cold liquids (I am an ice fiend)

    And no straws.

    Yesterday I had a horrible day. So much pain' date=' and gas. I barely sipped Water and a little bit of broth.

    Today more pain, still have not been able to burp or toot :(

    Walked for 30 minutes.

    Only been able to sip Water and about 2 ounces of a Protein shake.

    Is this typical?

    I keep reading about people drinking a lot. Everytime I drink I get pains in my shoulders and chest.

    I feel whiney! Lol[/quote']

    That was my exact experience after surgery. I was advised to get gas x strips but those only worked once so my hubby purchased gas x chewable tablets and they were heavenly!!! I was able to "release" more "air" and felt amazing afterwards!!!!! I wasn't able to get all of my fluids in on the first two days and paid the price for it on day 4 when I attempted to go back to work. Make your self get in those liquids or at least close to the oz prescribed by your dr.
