When will the swelling go down?
My husband and I had surgery the same day.
He was fine from day 1...I was severly swollen, inside and out.
My swelling went down gradually.
Take it slow.
Don't push the protein.
Don't PUSH the liquids, just sip, often. It's good pratice for when the swelling goes down and you actually CAN take more liquids and protein a lot easier.
Don't panic.
Follow the plan.
Be patient with yourself.
For me it was about a month of severely swollen. Everyone is different.
Now, absolutely no problems.
See you on the losers bench
