So I had my surgery.. All went well.. Apparently while they were in there, they also found a hernia (which I knew nothing about) and fixed that too! I still find that a bit strange.
I have been up and moving around, although today was tough at times because of all of the gas. It's amazing how much your shoulder can hurt from gas.
I've been getting in some of my fluids. I've had water, carnation instant breakfast and some peach juice. I refuse to drink cranberry. I am just not that desperate. lol.
I am taking in somewhere between 60 ml and 120 ml of liquid every hour. I am slowing down right now as i just find i am so full. The gassy feeling might not help either.
This might sound strange but the amount of pain has surprised me a bit, but I imagine they don't tell you this for a reason. Morphine was a close and dear friend last night and today I've been taking Tyenol 3s. It's funny because everything has to be liquid, so the tylenol 3s taste like cherry cough syrup. My whole life i've hated cough syrup. But i guess i can bare it to get rid of the pain. I have been told that most likely I am going home tomorrow. I can't wait. I am missing my son so much! Although it was great when he came and saw me today and asked me "feel better?".
Well I am off to sleep now. Hoping to get a few hours in a row.
Me.
