    So I’ve been told “you look great!” By all the nurses and my surgeon lol. I’ll be going home tomorrow thankfully. Tolerating fluids quite easily except now when I overdid it taking my paracetamol pill

  • Sounds like you did well! Tolerating fluids this early is a great sign. Hopefully it'll be an easy recovery.

That’s good to know! I drank 500ml of water in a span of 6hours the day of surgery and was told to slow down! Fluids are going down well, I’m just a bit more swollen today so burping more after each sip. But I get to try some yoghurt today :)). Hoping it doesn’t make me ill!


To give you an idea I had no fluids the day of, the next day I had a couple of ounces maximum and was drinking from medicine cups. It got a little better after, but I was having a couple cups a day until about a week out, then I started to get close to the fluid goal. After 10 - 12 days I was hitting it consistently... so you're doing great!
