6 days post op

Mar 29, 2009

I wanted to update last blog, I pooped and I owe it all to the Colace.

So it been 6 days on the liquid diet and I am beginning to feel my like myself. I can't beleive I have 3 more weeks off of work, what am I going to do with myself. I haven't cheated on the liquid diet but I have at least twice chewed food and spit it out. I know its gross but it satisfies whatever drove me to do it. I have been keeping a journal on what I have been drinking and my vitals, along with how I have been feeling. I have been reading the boards religiously. Unlike most post I feel like I am tighter at night, like I can put much down like soup. I also am beginning to feel no sense of appetite, which is good but I have to force my protein down to make sure I get at least 60g. My mornings are easier to get items down.

I have a little pain near port site and in the evenings I feel pressure on my left below my breast which I am chalking up as gas which is releived with gas-x in less than an hour. So before I head to bed I take my multi and pepcid along with gas-x.

Tommorrow is 1 week post op, it seems like forever and I am ready for some food with consistence...........Mash potatoes with cheese is what most people on the board chose.
