Home & trying to adjust

May 05, 2011

Well surgery was Monday, everything went well, but I feel like my recovery is not going as well.  Had to stay on oxygen for 2 days.  The biggest discomfort was dehydration, nausea  and big headaches.   I realize that these are probably all related to each other, so I am trying to push fluids, but  it is much harder than I thought to get fluids in.  Nothing tastes right to me, it takes me about 3 hours to get my protein shake down, alternating with sips of water.  I feel like I am almost afraid to eat or drink, but it is only been 4 days, so I am not panicking yet.  Also, I am trying to get my walking in, but I get out of breath so very fast- I feel like such a wuss, but I keep telling myself this is all part of the recovery.  I know all of this will become a distant memory but for now I better get back to shake and fluids.
