Tomorrow is 7 weeks post op!
Apr 12, 2010
Hello! It has been a fast 7 weeks. I am more energetic every day! Some days are so much better than the day before! I am no longer on my blood pressure medicine, in fact, yesterday my blood pressure was 101/73! I am amazed at how easily this reversed itself. My "impaired blood sugar" is no longer symptomatic as well. I am SO happy that I had this surgery. I was waivering back at the end of the year, would I miss out on opportunities because of my pending surgery, but I simply choose what is best for me and all has worked out. I didn't realize how much my taste buds would be affected by the surgery, but at about 4.5 - 5 weeks out, they started coming back to normal. The protein shakes and ANYTHING else sort of sweet tasting made me super queasy, so I avoided all of those foods. I have just started liking the taste of most food that has all the required protein, which is great, since I need it to help increase my activity and keep the energy level up. I go back to the doctor on Thursday and will see how I am doing...
