I had surgery on jan 28 I went home the next day i could only drink 2 sips of anything, isopure water crystal light it took me about 30 minutes had pain in middle off back but I'm also deyhdrated but doc wanted me back in the hospital and I feel soooo much better and I can keep down a few sips more with out throwing up anyway I'm getting my vitamins thru my iv and what a difference it makes my incisions are pretty much not hurting just a little sore but I hoping the steroids doc got going thru my iv works and makes the inflammation go down but thank God I'm feeling better take care everyone
