6 days post op, almost 100% normal :)

Today is the first day I can get up from sitting down or laying down and not feel like my stitches are going to pop open, the gas is almost gone, I can breathe nice and deep without any discomfort. I'm so ready to start my puree stage and hopefully incorporate some light exercise into my day.

Yesterday I was experiencing some pain and tenderness at my port site and today it's practically gone, normal?

  • I just noticed we had surgery the same day! Last night I could finally sleep on my side and not wince with pain. It was wonderful. My energy is back 100 percent and I can get up and down from a chai

I just noticed we had surgery the same day! Last night I could finally sleep on my side and not wince with pain. It was wonderful. My energy is back 100 percent and I can get up and down from a chair without much pain. I would say we're doing just about the same, so it must be normal. I feel the same as you as far as looking forward to the puree stage. So ready for that day to come. I'm tired of Soup and yogurt. (BTW: my nurse said I could have very runny instant potatoes and I've started eating those and it's been wonderful.)
