Today I have moved from clear liquids to full liquids--which means I can add in regular protein shakes, soy/skim milk, and strained cream soups! Unfortunately, this will also be my diet for the remainder of my first two weeks post-op.
I slept horribly last night. I really need to take some pain medicine before I go to sleep. I'm just stubborn, but I definitely suffered last night.
My incision sites are pretty damn red and my skin is itchy. I will have to keep a close eye on them this weekend to make sure I don't get a skin infection.
I just feel generally miserable. I ache and I hurt a little, but it's not the worst thing ever. It's just enough for me to not want to do anything. I feel tired because I didn't sleep well at all last night. I'm not hungry at all, but every 15-20 minutes I have to drink either water or protein drink. I know it will get better. I just wish I could feel a little better a little sooner.
It will get better. I will feel better soon.
