Surgery was 1/17

Well my surgery was on Tuesday 1/17. I had a few additional things done with my RN-Y, gal bladder out, hernia repair and he fixed a area under my hernia. I must say I feel like I have been hit by a MAC truck. I am better today than yesterday and know it will get better by the day. I was able to get down my first protein drink today. I was super excited about that. My husband and I are going to try a short walk here in a few. Thank you to everyone for being such a supportive sounding board.

Congrats on your surgery.. and at the same time i am sorry about the MAC truck...i wish i was there to get the license plate number for you.  I wish you all the Best and i hope you have a great walk with your hubby.

Congrats on your surgery, I will have mine on 1/30.  Best of luck to you and hope you start feeling better.

Congrats on your surgery.  I had mine on the n16th so I know the mac truck feeling.  but when you go home that will change.  Once I got home I felt so much better.  Hang in there.

Funny you should say you "feel like a Mac truck hit you."  I had my surgery on 12/27.  When I woke up in recovery the nurse asked my how I felt and told her, "like a Mac truck hit me."

Hope you're feeling much better very soon.

That is funny....  Sounds like the same Mac truck running around...  waiting for it to hit me....  :) Wishing you a speedy recovery...  enjoy your walk.

Congrats It is better to have had all of the other stuff done at the same time than to go back and have it done later! Whishing you a speedy recovery!

so glad things did turn out well in the end..hoping you do have a speedy recovery

I too had my surgery on the 17th. I had very little in the way of complications and still feel like I was hot by a truck. Walking around really helped me feel better even though I thought I would make me feel worse. Also, keeping a postitive outlook on everything really helped while I was in the hospital. I just got home last night, and was never so happy to see my cats. Best of luck to you.
