Hope you are feeling better soon. I gurgled after every sip but I believe that is the gas trying to escape. My nurse told me to burp as often as possible. My gas pain only lasted a few days. My tummy/throat still make ridiculous sounds when I drink. I only partially vomited because I was gagging on mucus. Vomiting after surgery is common though.

Everytime I cough I got scared cuz it actually hurt. I used the incentive spirometer to help with my lungs just for some reason the gas pain was still there . I'm home now and kinda feeling better just wished I never experienced such a pain in my life

Way to go my April 21st date mate!!! I'm on day four of my pre-fast diet and I'm doing fine just having a lot of diarrhea, nausea, and lightheadness. I'm caling my Nutritionist when she gets in at 10 to see what she has to say. This pre-diet is really hard especially when you have an addiction to overeating. I gradually tried to prepare myself for it by drinking the Protein Shakes in the morning and at lunch and dinner time I would have something light. I wish you well with yours. I have to do two weeks of shakes 3x's per day along with the liquids as needed. Have a great day!!!

Hey guys!! just had my preop appointment!!! i start my liquid shakes tomorrow for 10 days then 2 days of only clear liquids!! April 21st is my lucky day!! congrats on everyone who had surgery or got great news!! what did everyone do the night before they started their Protein Shake diet? did u have a big dinner? like a last supper kinda deal??? idk what my lastnormal meal should be bc i wont be eating real food for about 6 weeks!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
