Hi everyone, I had my surgery on the 11th, this past Wednesday. I was discharged yesterday afternoon. Doing okay...just been dealing with a lot of gas...the gas is pure evil lol...I laugh now but its not to funny when I feel the gas building up from my stomach to my chest :0(...that is the thing that's bothering me the most is the gas...the only thing that helps is walking...walking back and forth while I'm writing this actually...also been using gas x strips they have helped so much...it actually helped me get a good night sleep last night...felt some nausea only on the next day but the nurse gave me something for that...really hard to do the protein and the puree right now..been drinking liquids and eating some jellos...thank goodness I bought those protein jellos lol...but other then that I'm doing okay :0)...if any of you have any questions or advice lol please feel free

I had gas bad too first week took gasX with each meal and bedtime and walked and walked! I was told to strain broth off soup and use that tastes better than plain for a while cream of wheat also went down easy. My Dr. group did not recommend protien drinks at first apple juice 1/2 strength is good to but it seems the drs. are all different. Soon this part will be just a memory. Good luck.
