One week post op
Apr 26, 2012
I would love to say everything has been rosy but can't. I went into surgery with a weight of 217 and came home from the hospital at 245, I was shocked. I had tons of thrid spacing and was told very little about it. I am a nurse and feel com[plete lost with everything that has been happening to my body. It has been just over week since surgery and I am down to 212. I am thrilled by that but I have been having terrible stomach spasms that literally stop me in my tracks. I talked to my doctor two nights ago and she said I was doing what I should be doing- (drinking 64 oz of water, drinking 60 plus grams of protein, taking my vitamins, and taking pain meds as needed). These stomach spasms are extremely painful and have brought me to tears a number of time.It seems like they are much more intense at night. What am I doing wrong?
