  • Well it's 5am in London now. Day 7 contemplations. Have been awake a lot of the night with gas pains (that feeling it's right up to the top of your throat). But a week on I generally feel ok. I

Just curious as to what others drinking today and for the next two days.

So far I'm only drinking Water. I've been slowly drinking my Protein shake. I am having trouble with the pain after I drink something. Do you have this problem too? It's taking me a whole day just to finish a bottle of water :o I'm a bit worried about that
I'm having the same but I know people who didn't drink enough and had to go into the infusion center for iv fluids. So I've got myself on a good pain med schedule and trying to sip through the pain. What meds are you on?

@@abbyrn27 I'm taking protoix for reflux and Tylenol with codeine

The Isopure tastes way to sweet for me today. I'm drinking decaf unsweet tea and Gatorade G2. I ordered some Unjury to mix in drinks. I'm ready for some protein shakes!! I came home with Protonix, Demerol and Phenerghan.

@gracy0721. Lucky! You got the good pain meds. the Tylenol they gave me is in liquid form and I have trouble getting that down :(

smcobos2 I am having trouble drinking water because of my hernia repair my doctor told me I am swollen more than usual but eating popciles will help. After I eat a popcile I have able to drink thinker liquids. I have been drinking also propel water, crystal light, diet snapple, and sugar free Jell-O.

Yeah rough going with just Tylenol with Codeine. I'm on oral dilaudid, gas drops, levecin for spasms and Tylenol if I need it. They also gave me valium for sleeping. I don't take drugs for even a headache so it's weird to have so many heavy hitters.

They gave me liquid Vicodin and Oxycodone. I also was given Flexril for spasms and Zofran for nausea. I am a RN so while I was in the hospital I made sure I got one a good pain regime before I left the hospital.

I'm a nurse too! I manage 3 departments in the hospital where my surgery was so I think I got a little VIP treatment. I was also very pleased with the pain med regime.

But the thing that has helped me the most is you guys! ♡♡♡ I feel like I am not alone. Or not doing it by myself! Thank you everyone!♡♡♡♡♡

Well guys, my surgery was on Monday and I have had a rough couple of days. The first day actually went really well, was up walking 2 hours after surgery, got down some juice, water, jello. I went home Tuesday afternoon but got really sick Tuesday night. Threw up 3 times during the night and once this morning. I am feeling better today though. Sleeping and walking all day as much as I can. I have not been able to get much down but that is improving now as well. I definitely felt really terrible last night though. :( Just have to keep reminding myself this will get better within a couple of days. Anyone else have any vomiting?

Thank you! Yeah I was feeling pretty sorry for myself last night. :( I have had 2 c-sections so I thought this should be no big deal for me but it turns out I was a little mistaken. Thank God I am feeling better now though. :)
