Jan 26/12 - Feelind better
Jan 28, 2012
Its been 3 days now since my gallbladder surgery and I can honestly say it was much worse than I expected! I guess I was thinking it was going to be so easy compared to my Gastric Bypass... And it was but because I came home the first day and had different pain meds... It just seems like it hurts so much more.
I was able to move around better today and I was able to shower myself ( which felt really nice!) but it wore me out pretty bad! My fear has been realized.. super constipated.. even after taking multiple shots of MOM and many ExLax... it really does suck!!!
The kids have been really great! They are such good helpers. Kayla made dinner tonight (pork chops, veggies and pasta) and Ewans been a big help with Pedro and helping with the dishes.
As for me, I'm finding it hard to eat. Pretty much everything makes me nauseous ... So I've stuck with protein shakes and soups for the most part. Its really hard for me to be at home for this long without going stir crazy! Thankfully I have an extreamly thoughtful husband who went out and bought me some paint by numbers.. they have been a life savor! Wasted many hours.. here is one I just finished :)
