    Pain

    I never had the morphine. The nurses only came around when they felt like it. I know what your saying it sucks bad. Just remember it gets better everyday. I'm three weeks out and feel great.

    Price

    I just received a letter from the hospital saying my surgery cost 35,000. That's no where close to what my Dr quoted. I hope my insurance pays for it all. What is the average price ?

    Price

    My co pay is only $12. I have no deductible its 100 percent coverage. I hope I don't have to pay a bunch. They should tell us before our surgery what they will not cover.
  7. I'm two weeks post op and doing well. This morning I tried egg for the first time. Only three small bites and I was ready to hurl. Will we ever he able to eat more than just a couple bites or is this reality for the ready of our lives.

    I used the gas x strips and within 20 minutes I was having no trouble at all passing it. I too was miserable.
  12. Today I've had two 20 oz bottles of isopure. That gave me 80 grams of protein. One 20 oz bottle of water one cup sugar free jello and about 3 oz of broth. I still have plenty of time to drink more.
