1 week post op
I feel pretty good today except for the gout trying to set up in my big toes again. I'm taking the max dose of allopurinol and it's not keeping the gout at bay. I will make an appointment with my PCP this week and see what she thinks I need to do. Other than that the scales are going down. I've lost the regain from the hospital and then some. I'm very happy with the surgery so far and believe once I get back on a regular diet and feel stronger I will be totally happy. Hope everyone is having a great weekend.
Good luck with your gout problem - hopefully the doc can give you something to get you past the pain.
Seems like things are going well - good luck.
Glad to hear you're doing well. Take it easy, you're recovering from major surgery and you're existing on very few calories right now, so it will be a while before you feel really strong.
