    Yes you absolutely will. Ill be 7 weeks on Monday and Ian just now getting over it. Just remember it's normal and that first 6 weeks is not an indication of how life will be its part of the healing

  • How are you feeling? Any words of wisdom?

Me too. I guess it's totally normal to have all of these last minute jitters, I'm pretty sure I won't sleep much either especially ince I ave to be up at 4:30. Maybe I'll pass you in the hall on my way out and your way in!

Im about to leave for the hospital, See you on the losers bench in just a few hours!

All I can say is gas pain! When does it end?

Mine is awful too! I have a heating pad on my shoulder and can't seem to find a single position that is comfortable. It hurts so bad!

You've got to get up and walk around. Nothing will get it out except walk, fart, repeat for days

The worst part is over ladies, get up and walk and take your pain meds. Don't try to tough it out, if you're in pain take the meds.

Walk around the neighborhood. I also feel constipated and the puréed food I ate at the hospital feels like its lodged in my throat. Is that normal? How do I get rid of this?

Wait you're already on purées? Omg! I had to two liquids for 2 weeks after my surgery. I get that lodged food feeling if I eat too fast or don't chew well....

Yes we had to be able to hold down pureed food in order to leave the hospital. I think I'm going to stick with liquids for 2 more weeks bc though I haven't thrown up yet, it doesn't feel like its going down well. I still feel uncomfortable from yesterday. Even these pain pills lodged in my throat. It's too much.
