Post Surgery

Apr 24, 2010

I keep feeling like something is not right. I am only on my 5th day and things have been good. I have not experienced much of what I have heard from others. I had no pre-diet. Once my drain was removed I have had very little pain (the drain tube was causing muscle spasms). Only some mild affects from anesthesia such as the feeling like you are recovering from a bad flu. I have no hunger. No nausea. Only a pretty constant thirst. Pain is very minimal. I do tire easily. I have already lost 16 pounds and a dress size. I have gone from all clear liquids and am now on full liquids for the next 10 days. I have developed halitosis already! (halitosis is a bad taste/bad breath side affect from your body using stored fat for energy) I am some what afraid of what to expect. I feel like this has been a bit to easy and something bad is going to happen. For now only time will tell. I will keep up with my Dr's orders and try my best to get enough protein (and it is not proving to be an easy task!).
