I am home now! 2 nights at the hospital. Not very restful,as they wake you at intervals through the night. Felt pretty cruddy on night one, as expected. Day/night 2 were not much better. But day 3 and only have the gas pain in my left shoulder. It's not incapacitating, just bothersome!
I am not panicking over the amounts of anything that I ingest at this time. I just keep sipping.
Speaking of sipping, I am on full liquids, so I decided to have one of the shakes that I purchased from the center. So, I'm sipping away and realize am doing this THRU A STRAW! These shakes came "juice box style". I didn't care, kept right on sipping. I didn't die.
Well, going to sip on some beef broth now (sans straw)
