3rd is my surgery date.

Hey how is everyone doing?

I made if there and back uneventfully...LOL. I've been doing pretty good. Day of surgery and next were as expected. Day 3 and 4 all but my epigastric surgical pain and increased difficulty breathing set in. The nurse I am immediately goes to the worst, "i have a blood clot in my lung, or a leak, or.....". So I went to the ER. All my tests were negative for surgical complications (as I hoped). It was just swelling and the breathing issues were from my asthma. My asthma almost sent me back there today. The change of weather is hard on it. Having my first bit of reflux, probably because I pushed a progression of a food faster that I should have.

Today I felt like I just pigged out. When I added it up it was 350 calories!! Amazing.

All in all I'm feeling great. The memory of surgical discomfort is fading, kinda like childbirth. Actually I remembered that a good long while...this is fading fast.

I had surgery 10/15/15. Gas was a nightmare on the 16th but has gotten better each day. I have trouble sleeping though but I'm guessing because there are several naps throughout the day! Lol. Each day I feel better and better except today I was so irritable!! Anybody else experiencing irritability? Thought maybe it was a post op side effect and hopefully was a one time thing? We shall see!!!

My surgery on the 15th went great. No complications. No need for pains mess until I got home. Surgery was at around 8:00a.m. and I was released to go home at 6:30 pm. The only issue I'm having is figuring out if I'm taking in enough liquids. I never have a full feeling but I get a discomfort in my chest at a certain point. I'm going to call the doctor today and ask about it.I dontvwant to be starving myself and not know it!
