    Hi Stacey, I know what you mean about the gas pain in the chest area. I thought I was going to die. It is the worst. I have been using chewable gas x and that seems to help a bit. Today is really the first day it hasnt been too bad. I have actually been sleeping in my bed the whole time, but last night I must say was the best night so far. Although everytime I want to switch sides, its a big ordeal. Good thing my hubby sleeps through anything. I think I was naive, when I went into the surgery. I know everyone is different but I truely thought this was going to be a bit easier. Although if it wasnt for the gas pain, it really wouldnt be that bad. There is no pleasing me sometimes. Hope everyone is doing well! Remember Gas x is our friend! Happy Friday! Kayo -9 pre op -11 post op

    Hi all, Everyone seems to be doing great. I had my surgery on the 21st and today is my first day back at work-even though I am working from home today and tomorrow. I thought I would ease back into it. The pain has been tolerable; I was very nauseus the first day and threw up a couple times, so hopefully I didnt ruin anything inside. I am taking the pain meds only to sleep and never a full dose, so I should be off of those soon. So far I am not hungry, but I am on Protein drinks, Water and broth. I hope this lasts, although my instructions are "I can have anything I can drink from a straw- as long as I dont use a straw" --for the first 2 weeks post op. No mashed potatoes for me. Well everyone keep up the great work!

    Ok, Its day 2 of the liquid diet and I am down 4lbs from yesterday. Yippee!! I am sure its just Water weight, but I will take it!! So far the liquid diet isnt bad, but I am sure that wil change quickly. Although I must say, the "healthy" broth I had yesterday made me feel like I was basting a turkey in my mouth. Yuck!! Good luck everyone! Kayo -4
