  1. 8 days post-op. Had sudden bp drop before bed last night. Ok now. No pain. Back at work. Just moved from clear liquids x7 days to all liquid diet x21 days. First meal was crm chick soup with some mashed potatoes mixed in real thin and blended. 3 oz over an hour and that was it. Hopefully breakfast goes better with cream of wheat. I do wish I could just down a bottle of water like I used to but sticking with my sips and 4-8 oz/hr at the moment.
  2. Had a strange episode before bed last night. Took all my meds as I have been since coming home from surgery on 8/17. I got up from my recliner to use the restroom and attempt to sleep in my bed for the first time since surgery. Felt suddenly sick. Light headed. Dizzy. Tmi..but went to the bathroom with bowel issues. Felt like I was going to pass out right there. Got up to go to bed and could barely push the bathroom door open and passed out over my side table. Hubby was freaking out. Asking if I ate too much. I had eaten 3 oz of my first full liquid meal. I finally laid on the bed and my BP was 99/62 dropped to 88/55 and started there. I didn't move and drifted off to sleep. Woke up at 2p this morning to BP more normal at 110/79. Was a crazy, scary experience. Anyone else experience such? Going to talk to my doc about adjusting meds already.
