Did you try walking around a lot first



I feel like I have walked a marathon lol I took some gas x and it seems to have helped having a lot of pain in my lower right quadrant that shouldn’t be from the surgery so will probably call the dr on Monday otherwise I’m doing great plenty of liquids and Protein is almost where it should be.

Have you tried placing a pillow under your stomach when you sleep on your side? I found that help some if you sleep on your back try elevating your legs to keep the pressure off your abdomen. I hope you get some rest soon.

I am a Jan. 30th Buddy, too! How are you feeling today? I am quite fine but get some spasms occasionally.

It’s weird the different dr. Aftercare plans. I was told no protein for the first week. Just keep liquids going.

I am on pure liquids the 1st week, too. Water, broth, SF Jello, SF Popsicles only. No protein yet. :)

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
