    Hope everything went well! Just remember to take things one day at a time. Also drink your water and keep moving. Moving will help with gas pain so no matter how bad you may feel get on your feet.

    Thanks everyone for the well wishes and prayers. Wow. The last two days were hard but I was finally able to come home today. For now, my sole focus is getting my fluids and walking in. I keep telling myself that things will become more normal in the next few weeks.

    Devi, I am six days out and my recovery has been hard. But I feel SO much better today. Just know you'll start to feel normal soon. Best of luck!

    You guys rock! Thanks for the encouragment. I've gone back and re-read this thread to remind myself that things will be looking up in no time. I'm 3 days post-op and I feel a lot better. I've also been able to get my fluids in so far. I keep telling myself that this rough patch is just a means to get to where I know I will be getting!!! Thanks again for all the love!!
