I’m so excited ? any surgery twins? Are you guys ready? Do you have to do a liquid diet?

Surgery went well. Thankfully I’m not in a lot of pain. Maybe cause the meds still kicking. The only thing that is bothered me is my throat. When they took out the tubes they hurt my throat. No big deal though. I got send home from the hospital today. I got prescribe good medication for nausea, GERD, and pain. I can’t complain. I hope everyone is ok . Please let me know how you guys are doing.

Awesome news, glad to hear it!

They're beginning the discharges for myself as well. Gas pain was a bit of an issue initially but a few beaches cured that. I've never urinated in my life as I have today. 32 oz gatorade last night, one this morning, then the IV. I'm sending my nurse some flowers.

Thankfully I didn’t have gas pain but I feel you in the urinating . Omg I’m tired pf going to the bathroom. I feel like I’m pregnant again. Lol. I’m glad you are better.

Like you, I am on my first day after yeseterday's surgery. So sorry to hear about your throat and the tube problem. I have a bit of a sore throat and some swelling around the puncture sites and abdomen, but otherwise feeling much better than I expected.

Thank you, today I feel so much better. The only thing is bothering me is hunger pain. But I just drink some broth and it went away. Is a process that I’m still learning. I don’t want to throw up. So I’m been very careful with my drink intake. Hope everything goes well with you.

I am going today too!!

Congratulations on coming through. Gas pain issues began coming up for me late on Day 2 and on Day 3. Perhaps I wasn't walking around enough and the gas was not moving through and out of my body. I finally took some Mylanta, which was approved by my surgeon, today, Day 3, in the morning and it helped. A heating pad on the part of my body where I could feel the gas pressing, also really helped with the discomfort. My main activity for Days 1, 2, and now 3 are to measure my intake of broth, water, jello, and popscicles to make sure I'm staying hydrated. Dehydration is the #1 complication, I read.
