7 days post op and need help and ??'s

64 oz is the number to work up too, it's almost impossible to right out of surgery. Just do  a bit more each day.

I am trying!  Drinking is a constant thing it seems.  Maybe I am getting in more than I think

Thanks!

Mary one thing to & help with the fluids is sugar free popsicles. As for the anxiety, please call your Doctor.

I am eating the popscicles, but maybe not enough.   I am going to call my doctor and see what I can do with these panic attacks.  They are horrible

Thanks for writing

Mary

That is comforting to know and I will write.  Thanks for all your help, I really appreciate all you have offered.

I need reassuring right now.  I think I am just afraid.

Mary, I hope you are feeling a bit more comfortable in your new "shoes" this morning. Sometimes I would get on line and just write and write. I would work on my profile, jot down my feelings. Later on when I would go back and reread my profile I would really get some insights into myself that I hadn't realized. Just writing things down forces me to really dig in and think about what is going on in my head. Sometimes it's confusing and frustrating but it does provide insight. Just always remember that even in the dead of night someone on OFF is reading posts even if they aren't posting! Hugs,

Thanks Karen,


Those are some good ideas.  I will take them and use them too.   It is good to know people are out there reading and posting to help.   I guess I just have to deal with this myself for now and try and get over the attacks.   I don't know why I am getting them so badly.


Thanks for your support

Mary

Mary....sorry to hear about the anxiety and panic attacks.

Try to relax...everything will just fall into place. Just do the best you can for now.

We are always here for you!!

Thanks Connie...

I do need to relax you are right.  That is all I can do, is the best for now. 

Thanks for answering, it means a lot to me

You are right, maybe someone else is going through the same thing as me.  Or I could answer someone elses question.  I hope that day comes...:)

You are very reassuring

Mary
