I'm just 4 days post op and it's so hard watching my husband and kids eat like "normal". I cannot wait to get to chew. When can we have salad?

Yeah, I have the same problem with water. All I wanna do I gulp... Ugh!

Yes, this cramping is annoying. I keep getting a sharp cramp in my left rib. I'm hoping to go back to work next week.

I just had my surgery on the 10th and I feel so full under my ribs when I drink, is this normal or gas? I hope we March peeps and other veterans can support each other. This app is a Godsend!

Good, I'm so glad you're well....keep me informed. I'm pretty much the same. Gotta get this dinner down. It's not hard, but these gas pains are more of a pain in the ass lol

@ljgh73, I hope you are doin well. Please let us know.

.........my pain is in my upper stummy, a lot of pressure, ugh!!!!!!

Thanks everyone for the support and good luck and prayers for a safe surgery. I am still at the hospital since arriving yesterday. They said I could go home after I eat my 1st liquid meal.

I'm in my room finally. Got here at like 6 EST. Extremely tired and my upper stomach has bad gas pains. So far my incisions feel fine. I mainly feel tired, thirsty (cotton mouth), and gassy. They say they'll send me home 2mrw. I hope everyone that had it recently is doing well.

Thank you. I'm still waiting, Dr has been backed up, hopefully it will be shortly. Nerves are there, but not too bad. I'm more worried about the days ahead. I am moving soon and have to be out of our current house by April 1st. And our new house needs some improvements......sigh!

Haha thank you Sarah!

Thank you both. It'll probably be a couple hours yet. I really appreciate the prayers

Sitting in reception about to begin the first day of the rest of my life.....wish me luck! ????

LOL looking forward to the after surgery posts.

Has anyone had to do the miralax with Gatorade or crystal light?
