Thanks for asking! 😊
I came home Monday afternoon, after 4 nights in hospital.
I cannot thank you, and everyone else, enough for the helpful advice.
It was all consistent with the advice from my team, and it worked.
I personally experience lots of nausea and vomiting following anaesthesia, and this time was no different - making it difficult for me to get up and walking and drinking lots of water. But I kept thinking about you and your advice and pushed myself to a great end result! What a wonderful difference to be back home in my own bed where it’s quiet and I can begin the process of experimenting with foods and amounts, etc. in privacy and peace.
I suspect the really hard part is just beginning, and I appreciate very much the help this platform and its participants have given me in getting started on this part of the journey.
I’ve been raving to my surgeon about the benefits and he actually took down the details 😊👍
