Mmmm, post op soup!!
Jan 23, 2010
Surgery was 3 days ago and I'm feelin great! Well, apart from the stabbing gas pains in my chest that come and go throughout the day. LOL. I only feel slight muscle cramps at the incision sites and I have been walking and sipping. GasX is my best freind right now. Not taking much painkillers as I can't take Morphine/Codeine, and the Demerol is just nasty bitter cause I have to crush it!
I am managing to sleep on my tummy (my normal position) cause the gas is too uncomfortable on my back.
Just enjoying some tomato soup right now. I'm not liking the pre-op shakes at the moment. It seems only hot/warm foods are comforting. But I am managing to put in some protein powder into the soup and tea. I'm not one to like soup and jello, but it will have to do for a few more days.
