Just got home from the Hospital

That first 24 hours after surgery were TOUGH! The liquid Vicodin did hardly anything at all, it just knocked me out. Luckily, today I feel so much better. Still sore but I'm moving around a lot easier now. Getting my water in has been difficult and trying to blow into that stupid tube thing is Dan near impossible (I cant do it for very long) 

I'm just happy to be home & FINALLY on the losers bench ?

Welcome Home, MelodyMay!  I'm glad you're starting to feel a little better.  Each day will get easier.  Hugs!  ~Karen  :)

Sip tha****er as much as you are able (FYI dehydration is the #1 reason for readmittance) but it'll get better :) every day aim for a little better than the last... a few weeks of icky ahead but most of us would do it all again in a nano-second trust that when you have one of the WTH did I do moments. 

Speedy healing wishes!

Yea! Glad you're home and feeling pretty good! Keep us posted!

I'm glad you're home. It might be rough for a little bit, but you'll be feeling great before you know it.

Congrats MelodyMay, I'm so happy for you.  Keep us posted...I'm right behind you.

Welcome home!!! Glad you're back- stay hydrated and rest! Good for you!

Hey, I just wanted to say I'm right there with you.  I got home yesterday afternoon.  Getting in my water has been a struggle.  I'm starting on protein shakes today (oh boy).

Glad to hear you are home. Keep moving and sipping. Also you do have to rest. Walking around will relieve some gas pains. It does get better. 

Hey!  I got home yesterday.  It's been difficult, but I just keep saying it's going to get easier.  My dr. has me swallowing  pills and they're going down fine!  I was surprised by that.  I hate that tube thing, too!  S tired!
