Well...6 days post op and all is well. No complications yet. The nausea is tolerable now, hopefully diappearing soon. My belly looks good. I am forcing my self to get in water, and still have not managed to get in enough, 64 oz of fluids a day is my minimum. Yikes!! I can only take sips becasue my new "pouch" wont handle more than that. If I take too big a sip I can feel the cramping as it tries to move on through. Wierd feeling, but not paibful, just yet. I will def. need to be conscious of my bites as I eat..need to take small bite and REALLY chew...chew...chew...!!
I am totally exhausted all day long!! Morning seems to be my best time so far. I am up 7am, feel pretty good. Walk around the house a little, cleaning picking up little things. By 11 am I am ready to zonk out! AND I can sleep for almst 4 hours!! This is def. not normal for me....I hope it goes away soon!!
I did hear from everyone about this feeling.
So looking forward to my week ahead. Gonna try some pureed foods, see what I can tolerate. Hoping to go for a walk. And continue to catch up on all my tv sitcoms!!
Loving this rest!!
