Day 2, was rough ride home but made it. I'm doing ok. Protein is not going down as easy as it use to but I am drinking my fluids. Already my pcp is worrying about my blood pressure being to low but I assured her I feel better when it's low. Just going to have to keep an eye on it while loosing weight. Hope I have a speedy recovery I'm ready to get on living this life

I am having a very hard time getting Protein down. liquids go down fine but Protein is very slow. But the pain medicine gets me sick if I don't have the protein in me

Try drinking at different temps - it might go down better. You can also add unflavored Protein powder to broth or fluids.

Today is a little better, Protein makes me feel so full. Got some anti nausea meds that helps with taking pain pills. Praying every day gets better

I have to say this has been the most painful surgery I've been through, wish I could fast foward through the recovery process..lol I do believe each day is getting better, but only getting 30 grams of Protein in a day after 30 I feel like I just ate a whole thanksgiving meal. I'm miserable but then my mind can't wait til I can eat some kind of food. Today I walked a lot more. Only taking 2 pain pills a day off course they make me sick with no food in my belly. Just getting one step closer ...lol

Yeah today I only took 2 pain pills and got down 60 grams of Protein. I can't wait til the swelling goes down. Anyone care to tell me how many days it takes for the swelling to decrease?

What swelling are you referring to?

Great on getting your 60 g of Protein down.

How many days are you post-op now?

4 days post op today, I guess it's not swelling as its gas that makes you feel so bloated. I backed off on the Protein today it was making me feel too full. Nut told me not to push it.
