  3. Yup, same here.... I got mines the day after surgery and it was very uncomfortable! It's a good thing I was on morphine....

    Truth

    I'm glad your writing this post! It's not always smooth sailing like many people say on these boards.....someone wrote that they woke up in half an hour after surgery and two hours later were having ice chips and propel.....well for me.... I had my surgery at 1pm and didn't wake up until 10 pm with a very dry mouth....the nurse would not even get me ice chips or Water...I had to send my brother to get me a cup of water so I could gargle it out...at least my mouth was getting some moisture! On top of that I was severely nausiated and I was getting lots of gas that would hurt soooooo much! I was placed in a unit for heart patients....apparently there was no room in the surgery ward....my nurse had no clue what to do with me.....it felt as if it was her first day....she was trying to put morphine in my IV, but for some reason didn't close the knob I was bleeding all over the place....I was not allowed to drink water or have any ice chips all night I kept gargling, then my leak test was done the next day at 1pm, which made me throw up blood, and it hurt ALOT!!! Finally by 3pm the next day, I was allowed some water and all of a sudden they bring in broth, apple juice and Jello for me to have! Thankfully I knew to take it easy and start with tiny sips of water...I was not allowed to walk, the nurse kept on insisting I needed to rest when I kept insisting that I can go to the bathroom myself! Let me at least walk to the bathroom....but she was very rude and but a bedpan on me and wouldn't allow me to get up, thankfully when the new nurse came in the morning, she allowed me to walk to the bathroom by myself! Good luck on your recovery, I'm 14 days out and feel much better!
