Post-Op experience

Feb 06, 2010

Well it's been a while since I blogged about my surgery. It is now 5 days after surgery. I have felt some queasiness ever since Monday. The first three days were so bad with gas pains, I didn't want to speak or even move. I got up and dressed and walked and stuff, but the pain was still there. Finally Wednesday night, I sat on the toilet for just a few minutes and explosions started! Since then, the gas pains have left, but the queasiness is still hanging around. Makes it hard to get in my protein and water intake. The pain of the surgery itself though, pretty much went away quick. Either that or the gas pain over rid it and just never focused on it. They barely gave me any medicine to take after leaving the hospital so I am going to try to go without any. I feel fine. Still struggling to get in my protein and water, but everyday I am able to squeeze in more and more. I get up and walk around as much as possible, still hunched over from the pull of the scars. My wife did so fantastic with her healing time that I couldn't help comparing myself to her. I am a little behind her, but she did fantastic, so its all good! Well TRUCKS! is on spike right now, so I'm gonna go watch that. I'll keep you posted!
