Same

I am in the exact same boat. I am not eating enough and definitely not getting enough protein. I know it sounds gross, but I made chili for my family and blended some for me. It was really good and I had no issues eating it at 26 days post op.

Mine is definitely an allergic reaction to something....just keeping clean and dry and ice packs work best for itchiness Same here. We have to just give our bodies some grace. It probably is in shock and thinks it is starving. We just have to stay away from sugar and be patient. It will come off!

Me too. How're you doing? My incisions are so incredibly itchy!

I had my surgery Jan 18. I am feeling great except for the unbearable itchiness! I have been using ice packs. Added in a Claritin this morning. I know it is a normal part of the healing process, but I can hardly stand it. Anyone found any way to relieve it?

Hang in there, days 6 and 7 are WAYYYY better

I am 9 days post op a day had my staples out yesterday! Feeling great

How did you surgery go? Any advice for us?

Surgery on the 18th....getting a bit nervous. Mostly ready to just have it done!

Good idea. Thanks

Yes. By day 6 you aren't hungry anymore. I have even been making meals for my 6 year old. The food looks good, and I want it, but I am not hungry. So hang in there!

Post surgery issues?

Cleaning up the house, trying to get things in order before I head to the city 2.5 hours away where I will have the surgery Tuesday morning. Excited, scared, all around nervous, ready to have it done. I will be staying in the city until Saturday to rest up before someone drives me home. Any tips on what I should pack? Thanks Kristen

How are you feeling?

Beautiful ?
