New to Va. Forum -- Now POST OP!
Welcome to the VA board. Isn't Mike a gem. As for advice, take it slow, day by day. It could be that being in your home envioronment maybe you are eating or drinking too fast. Try to slow it down and see if that helps. If cold stuff works better, then stick with it. You will learn to read your body and it will get better. Definitely keep your eyes on it and call your doctor if you can't get past it. Best to you as you begin your journey.
My body is trying to heal and still has a foreign object in it (g tube) so of course it will swell and not feel good. How are you doing? Sounds like everyone had a fabulous time this weekend!
