Hello all! I had my surgery at about 11 o'clock yesterday and was supposed to go home today but I have stay another night. Problem is I haven't been able to keep anything down. As soon it water or protein shake hits my belly if feels like it begins to spasm. I did do my swallow test today but before he could finish I had got sick.

Have any of you experienced this I am so scared.

@@Ready set go! I remember a little bit of spasming...but it didn't bother me. It stopped. I only noticed it right afterward. I stayed only one night and was released the next morning at 8am. Sending well wished to you. Hang in there.

I also had surgery on Monday. Yesterday I was able to keep a little Fluid down. I went home yesterday afternoon. I tried to drink a Protein shake and because of the spasms it wouldn't stay down. I had an awful day. I can't wait until this part is over. To be honest, it's made me extremely depressed. I hope you get through this quickly as well. Keeping good thoughts for you.

@@debbie813 I'm so sorry you are having a hard time. Hang in there. Maybe stick with Clear Liquids till the spasms subside. Hydration is really what's most important right now, anyway.

I am confused as to you guys being allowed Protein Shakes right after surgery.. I was clear liquids first week.. Full liquids second week.. Purred food third week.. Soft foods fourth week and then started regular food

I think the Protein shake is too thick straight out of surgery and that's the problem

It was day 3 before I could have full liquids.
