Hi all had my surgery yesterday and I must say I am feeling pretty good. The gas pain is not as bad as I thought and other pain in pretty tolerable. I am so happy it is done and over with now I’m on the road to recovery. I am having a problem with peeing, they took the catheter out and want me to do it on my own but I can’t yet. Hopefully I will before I get discharged tomorrow. I’ve been sipping on water and jello so I hope that will help.

I’m happy your surgery went well. I’m not having any pain but I have a fever of 101 and can’t keep anything down throwing up green liquid. I was hoping to go home today but guess not.

Woot! Congrats!

Chantrella...feel better and keep us posted when you can.

I hope you feel better soon!!!

Yay!! Happy to hear it went well for you!

And, Chantrella, I hope things change for you soon and you can eventually keep something down. Fingers crossed you continue to improve and it gets better/easier.

Congratulations to you both. It’s so true our journeys are all different. TMI but I had to have a catheter just to wake up my bladder. Once I had it and my bladder was empty, I was able to go on my own. Our bodies are just weird sometimes. Happy healing wishes to all!

Congrats to both of you, and feel better soon Chantrella!

Welcome to the other side! Sending you wishes for swift healing.

Hey! Glad to hear you’re doing so well. Now the fun begins. ?

Glad you are doing well. It takes awhile for your bladder to wake up. I drank a ton of water, I was dehydrated, and was finally able to pee...I wanted to go home! Good luck!
