4 days post op
my surgery was Monday. I was the 2nd robotic surgery in the state! I had a rough nite last night. I got so nauseated from sleeping on my left side and had to move to the recliner/couch for the rest of the night. Nausea meds just make me sicker, but I am feeling better with every day that comes. SF popsicles is what is saving me right now to get fluids in. Warm liquids seem to soothe me too, so I'm thinking I may get some SF hot chocolate? and add some protein to it tonight. Not sure if that is a good idea or not.
Try some warm low sodium beef or chicken broth or warm decaf or herbal tea. That may help ease your stomach and help you get in your liquids. Remember to keep sipping slowly. Don't go back to old habits like taking too big of a drink of anything. That will definitely cause you a lot of distress. Hang in there! It all gets better with time.
