2 days post op & feeling like crap

Hello, I'm 2 days post op & I feel horrible. Chest pains (assuming from anesthesia), always sleepy, lots of gas in me that won't come out! & last thing is I cannot drink anything. The pain is too much when I swallow some water or soup... Hoping that this will go away.. I have lost 8 lbs so far since Tuesday, which I am happy about, but I am hoping that I won't regret this.... How long did this feeling last for you all? Do I have hope? What do I do about my intake, do I just not drink anything until I can? :( help please.....

  • Day 2 sucks! I totally agree. Each day gets better and better. Honest it does. I think day 5 was the 1st day I went to run an errand. Not a big trip but really started feeling better after that. By 2

    From everything I've read, you need to make yourself drink something... otherwise you will get dehydrated and have to go back to the hospital.

I also am having a very difficult time. I had surgery Tuesday and I'm barely getting in 20 ounces of water a day. Unfortunately my bowels are not happy and iv been going 6-8 times a day so I feel very weak from that. Also not eating really anything. I had a medicine cup

Full of chobani yogurt and a freeze pop. So far today and I just started sipping on water. I have no energy or motivation to even move. I can't wait until this passes and it's extremely depressing to see everyone else who is doing so well! Deff have that "hit by a bus" feeling going on here. I hope this gets better

Yes alot of us maybe happy and doing well now but trust me we have all felt the way u do right now it will pass and each day u will feel better and start to do better hang in there u will be ok
