Sorry. I was late on the response. I see above where you did. Hope today is a better day [emoji173]

Update everyone...first of all thanks for all of the positive feedback. I actually went back into the hospital on Monday. All of my Vitamin levels were low and I will still extremely dehydrated. They ended up giving me more fluids with all of the Vitamins added. They could not find any usable veins since i was so dehydrated so after what felt like a thousand attempts... they were able to get my IV started with the use of an ultrasound machine. I feel a thousand times better today. I hope to never be in that situation again. Im taking alllll of my vitamins as scheduled and ive actually been able to keep down some things like small pieces of fruit, baby food, approx. 2 to 3 teaspoons of oatmel and about 40 ounces of Water throughout the day 😊😁😎😍 i hope my good days are here to stay

Well guys i was in so much pain i went to the ER friday night. They kept me until early Saturday morning of course I was dehydrated so they gave me two bags of Fluid they also did a cat-scan and there were no apparent issues that they could see. I also have a kidney infection. They sent me home with antibiotics and pain meds. Both are so big i can barely swallow. Then the antibiotic doesnt do well with the zofran (nausea med) so i cant take them together. Still not tolerating anything well. Just got a couple of spoons of cream of chicken Soup to stay down but even it tasted gross. Nothing tastes good anymore. 😭😭😢 i go to a follow up appt with my surgeon tomorrow. Hope i dont have to get a feeding tube or anything. And i guess trying to look on the bright side.. im down 60 pounds 🤷‍♀️. 25 during my 2 week liquid pre-op and the other 35 since surgery.

I doubt you will need a feeding tube, but maybe more IV fluids. I swallow big pills with Protein Shakes or Tomato juice, the thicker liquid makes it easier. Good luck!

So see your surgeon asap. If you can't, go to the ER. Good luck and I hope you get help soon and feel better.

I agree. Contact your surgeon ASAP . They may or may not direct you to go to the ER but you need the opinion of a healthcare professional. Good luck and keep us posted.

All great advice to contact the professionals. Try warmer drinks also. Keep us updated.

Same, my surgeon said the second the pee is orange, call him asap, if it happens. I've been fortunate enough to stay hydrated using Water flavorings to keep me drinking. the best so far has been the powdered propel.

Good luck and call your Dr ASAP!!!
