First day home

I was feeling great when I got home. Then the pain hit. got my medications and feeling better. Taking everything slow. Really slow. I'm excited to start exercising again.  Thank you for prayers.

im glad your home!!! Take it easy the first few days back home and you will feel better!! I'm 2 weeks out and feel pretty good!!

Thank you for the encouragement. I thought I was doing a lot of things wrong. I will slow down and tank my time. Be more careful. This is delicate.  
Congrates on your two weeks out. Keep up the great work.

I'm wishing you all the best! Hang in there, the first few weeks can be brutal physically as well as mentally. From what I've read most people feel better by week 4 totally (I developed a leak I still have so I'm not sure about how it should feel after for someone who heals normally). But like I said, most people say week 4 is when it starts to get much better!!!

Thank you and I am in for the long haul. It is so new and truely a life style change.  I am diabetic also so I do heal a little slower than normal. Patients is what I pray for.

Hang in there! It really does get better. Keep walking!

I'm sorry to hear you're in pain. Hope that subsides quickly.. Will keep you in my thoughts. I'm a huge fan of Oceanside. We visit from Iowa every couple years or so, got married on the pier. Feel better soon! 

Thank you for your reply and thoughts. I have to change my timing and go slowly.  When they say sips of water I need to pay close attention to doing just that. I am glad you and your husband like it here.  My husband got married in 1988 in PA. brought our sons out here for our honeymoon then moved out here a year and a half later. We have been here every since. It is a beautiful place. If you come again let me know maybe we can meet and have lunch at the pier.
Thank you again.

Congrats to you, got home yesterday also. No real pain just feels weird to drink.

That is true I felt weird drinking such small amounts especially water. I will get there. Tonight I made the mistake of drinking just before sleeping that was not good to do. I have reflux and grd every time.  Prilosec may have to be increased or I need to go slower. Thank you and congrates on your surgery. I will keep you in my prayers.
