been home since sat night

had my surgery wed may 9th got discharded sat afternoon. blood pressure was up and down and so was the heart rate. Got in my howntown about 5 pm sat. one mile from home and a car broadsides our car. back to the er i go er done a cat scan with contrast and everything checked out good. Im just thankful nothing got torn up. still trying to figure out the fluids . small drinks make me feel over full and small sips seem to work best 6 days out how much protein should i shoot for.

Glad to hear everything is okay.. take your time and rest/walk/sip  try taking in 4 oz at a time of liquids  they also have isopure clear protein drinks, and unflavored protein you can add..
i had powerade diluted on my first week and clear diet. but everyone had a NUT plan from your DR.
I just started on protein shakes the most important is to get your fluids in..
take care good luck.. Eve

Sorta funny we almost got rear ended twice on the way home from the hospital , got home only to find out my seat belt was not snapped in......So glad you are o.k. !!! ya just never know , you can survive a serious surgery to be hurt on the way home
I don't think you have to be overly concerned about the protein , just get in as much as you can.
Again you are o.k. !!

Glad you are OK. Sounds like your hospital stay was routine and it worked just as fine as mine did. I am on the cat food diet. Well it looks like cat food, but so far I eat about 4oz at each meal and so far so good. I am finding that things I used to love now I can not stand the taste. Nothing seems to make me full like you say you get. And I sip but I know I can drink just about as fast as I want because I forgot a few times and there was no pain or sickness. I guess we are all different. Nice to have the surgery over isn't it? Now we have learn to use our new toool.
