Hi all, I'm on my first full day out from the hospital (surgery was 5/1, released 5/3) and I think I am doing well. Walking laps around my apartment hourly. Working on getting enough liquid in (docs and nutrition stressed this over protein for the first few days) and only needed my pain meds once so far today! I am uncomfortable from the gas but otherwise ok! How is everyone else doing? Highlights of my day were showering and getting off the couch by myself!

I think you are doing way better than I did. I had surgery on 4/27, released 4/29 but I was on pain meds and needed help getting off the couch until 5/2. Gas pains disappeared by day 6.

I still cant sleep on my sides though.

I had my procedure same day. I'm having abdominal cramps and gas, but that's all my serious complaints. Not hungry at all! It's a chore just getting the water down it seems. I'm doing ok walking. Sleep last night was rough though

Glad you guys are doing so good, I had rny 04/28. Due to some complications ended up having a 9 hour surgery and staying an additional day in the hospital. but getting better each day, having a hard time taking in 80 grams of protein and still can't sleep on my sides either.
