HiyaThank you I did a mixture of hospital diet and slimfast, so I did two slimfast breakfast and lunch, and then a chicken breast and potato for dinner, so I had something to chew on. The last day I just had three slimfast to minimise what was in my stomach. Afterwards he said the operation went well just a couple of bleeds but he said that is very common. But I didn't think my liver was shrinking, but I did realise I had more trips to the bathroom which is supposed to be good sign. I went out on Sunday for about 5 hours which was fine, no pain whatsoever but I was very tired so had half hour lay down and all was fine You can do light walking as soon as comfortable but can't do much more -such as the gym until the 6th week/your follow up with mr welbourne. They also advise not to drive for the first two weeks/ until you can do an emergency stop without hesitating, or until your insurance says. I've lost track of the days, I thought today was Tuesday so was going to wish you luck. Now I realise it's Wednesday so your probably in recovery, so hope all went well!! Let me know how you got on
Well I've had my bypass, all went well and mr w is pleased with the op. I'm feeling a lot of pain tho in my tummy! Going home tomorrow and not sure how I'm going to cope with the children!!!!!!
How are you doing?
