One week post-op

Apr 01, 2009

Things are going great!  Saw my surgeon yesterday and had the staples and drain removed.  I was advanced to soft foods and had a scrammbled egg and some tuna that went down fine.  Slept much better last night with the drain gone.  Blood sugars continue to be stable even though I keep reducing my medications.  I have discontinued 8mg avandia, and I have reduced my Lantus from 70 units per day to 20 last night.  I continue to take 2000 mg Metformin (glucophage) and my Januvia.  I am down unofficially nine pounds since surgery and 20 pounds since my initial consultation. (Official weigh-ins come on Sunday)
