Hi I havent had my op yet but I hope you feel better soon x

Its early days just keep sipping your water and eat like abird if you get discomfort or pain when eating stop and eat no more thats when you know you have over eat, you will learn the signs. keep on with your fluid too big of a sip more like a gulp will give you pain as well. Each day though your pain will get better. You will get through it. xx

Welcome! I'm nearly two weeks post op from a bypass and pretty much feel back to normal unless I over do it and spend most of the day walking about etc then I get pain. Wind pain for me went in about a week. At first I felt rough and reading people say it gets better was not much comfort but OMG it really does lol. Good luck hun
