OMG...nerves are over the top!!
Put an ice pack between your boobs after surgery. Makes the boo boo feel better.
Sit up as much as you can, and WALK as soon as they tell you you're allowed. I took my IV pole and walked everywhere.
You might have painful gas in you and the walking will make it move and disperse.
Walking also helps get the anesthesia out of your body.
No matter what they give you for liquids, SIT UP to drink, or even stand if you can. Keeps the swelling down.
Get the pipes flowing as soon as you can. pee, poopies or whatever. you will feel better.
Ask your Doctor for DISSOLVEABLE melt in your mouth Prevacid Solutabs. They help you not feel boo boos as you drink right after surgery. I still take them once a day.
