Good luck SleevinIT. I got mine Monday,and it is such a relief to be on the other side. Bring chapstick a' ay they added milk, and yesterday they added Glucerna. They gave me medicine cups, and a check off sheets. First day post surgery was 2 ounces of clear every hour. Next day was 2 ounces, 1 clear, 1 milk an hour. Yesterday was 4 ounces an hour, 2 clear, 2 milk or glucerna. Today and until my post op it's 4 clears, 4 shake/milk an hour. It remains at 8 ounces an hour until I have my postop appointment on Tuesday. I moved off the narcotic painkiller and on to plain liquid tylenol. I've felt constipated since day 1. I also feel hungry, but haven't been drinking my Protein the way I should. I'm trying to get that down now. Just don't want it. I'm on Prilosec for the gas. Getting up walking every hour, just a few laps around the house. You'll do great, I'm so glad to be sharing this journey with all of you. Thanks sleevinIT for starting this thread.

Remember try walking..... Or I would lay on my bed and rock a little... Or make urself burp........ U don't need to be a lady right now.... Lol

Glad ur ok

Awesome, glad you joined us on this side. 6 days out, Clear liquids and Protein drinks, far less than I had before the surgery. Some incision pain, gas pain mostly gone, feel hunger, but from the boards have heard that goes away once I have solids. Was constipated, but stool softeners and Fiber chews helped move that along yesterday finally! I'm tired, but that's always the case after major surgery for a while. I'm thrilled to hear you are doing ok SleevinIT. Don't let the pain get ahead of you, keep up on those pain meds the first few days.
