Percocet=constipation. Walk. Drink. Walk, drink....repeat 400 times. And make sure you don't leave having a bm til it's like the Rock of Gibraltar.

That whole bowel thing is retraining so you have to get on it right away. Just like you would your son, daughter or dog. They have to have their bowels trained lol

 

Good luck

I went and filled what I thought was going to be percocet; however costco gave me the generic of it, so I got oxy.  I am trying not to take it and stick to the extra strength tylenol and I have had to pop a gravol in there.  The pain isn't to bad, it's still more in my back and neck....lots of gurgling and I still have zero appetite for anything right now...just keep drinking.... How are you doing today?

Funny other than the pain around the portholes when I am getting in and out of bed the discomfort I am having is around my middle   

Back area. If I can twist or shift around it will crack and I have relief for a while. I will cut back to Tylenol tomorrow ....had a good sleep last night from 2-7 then got up to do laps, managed to get 1 premier protein shake down. Spacing my meds apart....took Rx prescribed by doc. Prevacid fast tab has to be taken for 90 days, stool softener, and 2 multi vit want to try and have shower this morn. Now just sipping and sipping water. I have no appetite either, just going through the motions.... Are you managing to get a little protein? I don't mind the premiere shakes.....how did you sleep last night?

See I thin that is where our centres differ because with guelph we are only allowed broth, jello and clear fluids for the first two weeks (no protein)..so weird how every centre is different.  And besides the meds I was on prior to going in and the oxy they didn't give me anything else.
