Just checking in fellow July 2020 surgery frens. My surgery was July 7, was supposed to be discharged yesterday, however I was not passing enough urine to satisfy the requirements to go home. They had to straight cath me 3 times yesterday. After the 3rd one, I was able to go an acceptable amount.
Night 2 was much more laid back. I was not poked or prodded every hour, only when I got up or every 4 hours.
They sent me home on the full liquid diet which is much better than the clear liquid. 👍🏼
I got home around 2ish and I am still so tired, so I took a nap and just woke up.
Time for those pain meds. Liquid acetaminophen and codeine as needed. Pain isn’t as bad as I had figured it would be. 🙏🏼
I hope all of those who had surgery have had a fairly easy go like me.
