Day 6 - This s&@# just got real

Jul 21, 2012

 I always try to be honest and objective in my blog posts... So since Thursday evening I've been in a new type of hell- nausea.

While in the hospital, the nurses did a great job of giving nausea meds. However, at home it's a real challenge as you learn how to manage clear liquids and the speed of intake and the complete change in your sense if smell- at least in my case. Right now, I need encouragement. I'm going to leave my house for a bit ( I did walk around my neighborhood yesterday). Maybe retail therapy will help. On the plus side? I'm down 3.5 lbs since surgery but that's understandable considering my lack of calories.

Please let me know you made it or are making through your first 2 weeks post op...
