I hate y'all are feeling so much discomfort. I hope it gets better. How many incisions do y'all hv?

Still at hospital. Trying to get Fluids down is a struggle. I also have a slight fever. Hoping it goes away. :'(

I'm 4 days post op....I am very weak...Im only getting about 20 g protein a day and like 20 ounces of liquids daily....and I can't sleep!!! I'm a stomach sleeper and I been having to lay on my back ughhh I can't wait to be better

Omg just got up to check on my dogs and totally passed out , was able to sit on the floor on my butt ! This sucks ... I am gonna up my fluids , get some sf Gatorade , and change positions slowly , anyone else have Orthostatic hypotension post op ?

Surgery date was October 2 nd;) I'm 23 years old from Canada. It will be 2 weeks post op in 3 days and I feel great. I have had soup and yogurt and cream of wheat it all goes down pretty well so far. The only time I get nauseous is when I take my vitamins, it doesn't happen all the time but it has happened. I am so happy I did this;)

Oct 1st was my day!!! I'm now on Purées and am loving the results I'm seeing. I started out at 255 beggining my pre-op diet then day of surgery was 242, and today I'm at 229.6 I've never been as proud of myself with how disciplined I've been through the last few weeks. If anyone wants to add me I'm on myfitnesspal also; lparker001
