Nov 25, 2014

One week post surgery.   My hospital stay ended up being 3 nights due to a little extra work by the surgeon and extreme nausea.  I was taken care of wonderfully and very pleased. Since being home I'm very fatigued, more so than I thought I would be.   My brain feels great like I can and want to accomplish so much, but when I get up to do anything,  I Peter out quick.  So I must be patient.   I've been getting in about 45 grams protein and not enough fluids yet.  I've always been weak when it comes to getting enough fluids.  Still have one week of liquids to go before soft foods.  I'm not experiencing hunger, but smells and commercials do make me want food. I try to quickly turn my mind to other things to forget about it.  I think my first taste of real food will be a savory experience.
