Post Surgery 1 week
May 10, 2010
Well surgery was one week ago. I have to say I was surprised by the amount of pain from the gas used to increase the stomach during surgery. I had one incident post surgery evening where it was determined that I either threw a clot or had a minor heart attack. Other than that it went well. I had surgery on Tuesday May 4th and left the hospital Thursday May 6th. The weekend at home was tough but OK. I was more worried about keeping hydrated than eating any type of food. When I left the hospital I was on pureed foods. I did eat some eggs on Saturday and some pees Saturday night. Other than that I have been trying to keep up on the protein mix. There is so much to remember but I am sure it will be great. I have a mentor assigened by the hospital who Will be visiting this week. I'm looking forward to that because she is very much like me. As for weight loss I gained 10 pounds in the hospital which I did not like but it was from the fluids. It is slowly going down this week. I will try to keep this updated. There are so many things going on in my life including my husband leaving me for a younger (thinner) woman. It has been very emotionally draining but I will not fail and I will keep going.Lucy
