Thanks! You too! Do you still get nausea sometimes or no ?

I never ever was nausea. I miss that ?

Hi All November 6 for me

I never ever was nausea. I miss that [emoji305]

Ugh I'm jealous. I keep getting these random waves sometimes. I wonder if I mighy drink too fast? I dunno. I see my team on Friday, maybe they have some insight.

Up and down like a snail is a good analogy. I was told to drink 3 Protein Drinks a day once I get home. I do what I can. I feel like if I don't I'm only starving myself and that's no good. I don't know if you're going through this but my incisions do not like to have clothes on them. Is that weird? I can have a pillow up against it, but that's it, so that's something at least. Ice helps but after a while drives me nuts. Other than that I feel great. Beatrice (what I call my new tool) hasn't been giving me too much hassle, so that's a plus. I'm so glad I did this.

No cause I always wear a binder.

They didn’t give you something to take when you left the hospital. My Dr gave me a script just in case.

I was nauseous the one time. That was the day after surgery and I was trying to drink too much too fast. I slowed down and so far it's all good.

It hurts when I wear a binder.

I have been taking Zicam swabs. Did you have a cough? I am perfectly fine besides this darn cough! No fever or anything. I'm determined to kick this by Thursday. My insurance changes Jan 1st so I am terrified of being rescheduled! I had a baby this year so I've reached my deductible and max out of pocket for the year.. Been drinking a ton of broth, sitting in the steamy shower, Benadryl, sudafed, inhaling essential oils the whole 9! Ughughugh!

I'd love to find some other buddy sleevers that are having surgery near my date (within a few months). I have surgery tomorrow, Nov 15th! Anybody need a buddy? I'm from Oklahoma btw.

Hey LylaLovesCoffee what is a binder?

They didn’t give you sonrthing to take when you left the hospital. My Dr gave me a script just in case.

Yeah they did. I use it sometimes I'd just like to know what's causing it.

Hey LylaLovesCoffee what is a binder?

Hi! I can answer this because I love mine! A binder is like a Velcro wrap they provide post op to kinda keep your stomach and everything tight. Moving around is painful at times so the binder keeps everything in place. I literally wear mine 24/7, even to sleep. Layla - did I miss anything?
