If I could turn back time I would. I was so strung out on medication that I am still in the hospital on an IV because I can't keep anything in. Oh I should mention my surgery was Monday. They also did a hernia repair while they were at it. I feel so frustrated now

I'm so sorry melissa, I too was in the hospital I was vomiting from the anesthesia and pain meds. They kept me on an IV but switched me to cream Soup, applesauce, pudding and the vomiting stopped I don't know why I could not tolerate broth, tea,

feel better soon

Melissa. I too had some issue but am now 1 week postop and feel 100% better. Hang in there...this too shall pass. You made the right decision your just in the thick of having major surgery.

It definately will get better. Don't lose hope. With both surgeries you have put your body through a lot. It's gonna take time to recover.

@@melissapishappy32 Just wondering how you're doing now that you are a little further out.

I was home after my first hospital visit for almost a week and then got sick and dehydrated and put back in the hospital. Turns out I have an ulcer that was causing my problems. So I spent another week in the hospital and then they sent me home with a PICC line in my arm. I still have the PICC line and it gives me fluids at night. I am doing a lot better now though and am progressing with my post op diet. I have a doctors appointment on 6/10 and I am hoping they will take out the PICC then.
