I had my revision from band to sleeve last Thursday, March 3rd and have an appointment to remove the drain on Wednesday. My biggest pain, so far, was the gas in my chest and neck Thursday night and Friday. I am having trouble sitting completely upright, due to incisions on my belly roll and the pressure from it. Now bending and twisting is not advised or recommended as I have already tried with poor results. I plan on returning to work, Monday the 14th and will be light duty for up to 6 weeks. My wife says no tractor riding or fishing until Dr approves it. I think I am going to bribe him!! Wish each of you the best with your surgery and speedy recovery to get back to whatever you enjoy!!
I had my revision from band to sleeve and gall bladder removal last Thursday and have had a few days to dabble with deep self-thoughts. I am on a liquid only diet. If it can pass through a straw, it is food. As I look past the nutty buddies and shortbread girl scout Cookies to the canned food section of the pantry is my section. Broths, chicken noodle with a strainer and cream Soups. OK, cream soups, looks like pudding and the potatoes look like soupy potatoes and I stepped on a mushroom and it looked kind of creamy. Now to my question, I only took pain meds for 2 nights and that was a couple days ago and they gave me the craziest, most vivid dreams, maybe a later pondering,, I'm back, Where is the creamy part of the Chicken?? I have lived in the country most all of my life and have seen chicken cooked, killed and mutilated by many varmints and processes and never came up with cream chicken. The only creamy stuff from a chicken was on the floor of the chicken house and it's not the same color. I am now struggling with creamy chicken Soup for sustenance, as it will not swallow well unless it is watered down to broth. I am guessing it is really fat of chicken soup and that doesn't sound good or healthy and why is it yellow, since chicken meat is white? So, whipped egg of chicken soup with morsels of chicken added?? This may not be one of life's great mysteries but it has given me a few hours of serious thought and hope it stirs others to think!! Hope everyone has a great day!!
Congrats!! I am looking at my second surgery Thursday. Yes, I am nervous, but every journey starts this way. Doctor will make you forget about any nervousness. Waiting to hear post-op status!!
