16lb is great, you'll be fine and if you wobble day 2 or 3 we all did XBy the way ! Just another quickie ( said the actress to the bishop ) I have lost 16lb post op ! That's in 2 weeks ! Shame the liver shrink diet isn't sustainable eh ? Mindy Xxxx
glad your ok x well done on your liver. Welcome to the bench XLovely to hear from Mindy. Was thinking of you. Great about the liver. All that hard work paid off! X x are you home now? Thanks for the heads up about the pin and breathing. Two things that would have panicked me also. What time was your op? And when we're you out? Enjoy being looked after today and relax and recover. Here's to your new life ahead x x x x lots of love x x
Good to have you back Mindy, and hope the pain is easing. Have been thinking about you. xI'm on the other side !
All went well. Dr Byrne was very pleased and said I'd done a good on my liver
The pain on awakening wasn't something I was expecting though . It was like being kicked in the stomach by a horse with an extreme burning .. But a syringe of morphine took the edge off .
Plus I felt I couldn't take a good deep breath which make me panic a bit , but that's because there's air around the diaphragm stopping it from fully inflating . But that passes with about 20 mins
Updates later
Thank you all for your messages
