Same day as me! How are u feeling?

Looks like several of us had surgery on the 24th. I'm venturing out to the garden a couple times a day, but otherwise, I've got the blahs. I don't think this weather's helping though. I was looking forward to it training, but it looks like we're not getting any.

Mine is Tuesday morning...I am ready!!!

I am doing okay! doing little walks here and there.. I am still at my mom's and debating on if I want to go home yet, my apt has stairs to get to.. How are you doing? Crafty, I am the same way I think it is just a case of cabin blues so to speak.. just remember, it can't rain all the time. Sherri, Goodluck on Tuesday!

I am doing good! I really started getting my appetite back today and have tolerated my protein shakes a little at a time. I'm still weak but I haven't been eating or drinking nearly enough. I have a two story condo that I have been able to get up and down just fine and able to take showers too. I'm still in a little pain mainly from my gallbladder being removed I think. But sure u would do fine with the stairs but better safe than sorry. Good luck with your recovery!

Hi all! Also banded on the 24th and have had no pain at incisions, but OMGosh the gas pains I thought were going to kill me. Unable to much walking due to storms and flooding...it's been a crazy 5 days, but I'm still glad I'm here!

I was doing really well this morning. Got some decent sleep last night, and didn't wake up in pain. Dummy me forgot to fix a protein shake before heading to church, and boy am I regretting it! My sugar dropped while in church, and I started getting nauseated. Them the gas pains hit with a vengeance. I am not doing that again. I was able to drink half a protein shake very slowly and take some gas-x. Now I'm just waiting for that pain to subside a little more. Does anyone else have problems with drainage at suture sites? Three of mine were draining during church and I kept having to go out to blot them and clean my shirt.
