Has anybody else experienced a lot of itching at incision sites right after surgery? I’m 3 days out and it is driving me crazy. I just want to dig. I know when a wound itches they say it is a sign of healing. But this soon after.
I also seem to be having a tougher time getting the Protein Drinks and Water in. My stomach feels like it is freaking out. Hard to explain the feeling. Is this normal??

I wouldn't think it was an issue. Everyone heals at a different rate, and you could be healing a bit faster.

Hi Everyone!
I'm starting my liquid diet today! My surgery will be March 19! Any tips for getting through the 2 week liquid diet?
I'm going to need all the help I can get! haha!

Be strong and steady. I was very hangry [emoji6] it gets easier!! Keep your eye on the prize. I froze Greek yogurt for a treat and used unflavored Protein in a lot of things to make sure I got my protein. If I got really hungry, I gulped a big cup of Water and went walking. Surgery for me is tomorrow. You can do it!!!

Itching is a sign of healing. This is a good thing

So I had a small almost-panic-attack just now thinking that I was going to be rejected right on the OR table, LOL. Has anyone else experienced this kind of thing?

13th for me 😁😁😁.. anyone know once you start the 9 day diet if your allowed to drink more than 64 oz In a day??? I’m mostly on a liquid diet, except one yogurt at dinner... 3 Protein Shakes and ..8oz of milk... the dietitian said 1000 calories a day... but If that’s all I’m allowed to eat... that’s less than 700 calories... any ideas??!! Please and thank you 😊
