First off had surgery may 11th.
1. When am I supposed to have a BM? Was in a two week liquid diet prior to surgery ... And haven't gone since 3 days prior to surgery.
2. Large incision not only painful but has a puffiness that feels like massive air and i can't get rid of it!!! Any ideas?
3. I'm having a hard time drinking my fluids . I take a few sips and feel like it's stuck in my chest . Is that the "full feeling"? I don't have hunger not thirst. But after a couple of sips of broth or bites of Jello I'm over it.is this normal?
My surgery is may 11 th and I had a small meal yesterday (chicken and broccoli) . Mainly protein , and I feel horrible ! I don't know if to call and confess I screwed up or if to load up on green tea to flush myself out and stick strictly to the diet. I'm def bummed!
My doctor is requiring 2 weeks of clear liquids. I'm only on day 3 (hate to complain) but I just feel so drained already. How am I supposed to get through two weeks!!!
I finally have a surgery date! May 11th. Yay! I can't begin to explain what a journey it has been to get to this point. And I know it is just the beginning!i have so many emotions!! Excited , nervous , scared, you name it I feel it. Which has me freaking out a little bit.
First off liquid diet for two weeks before surgery starting Monday! Ummmmm. All I keep replaying in my brain is "its all for your own good"
