Depending on the severity of the pain, what you are experiencing sounds pretty typical. Most people have no energy to begin with simply because you are not getting the calories that your body needs. As you progress towards real food this will get better and even though it seems like it never will, you will get back to having normal energy levels soon. Your pain could be anything from a stitch to constipation or something serious. If it gets worse or reaches a point that it is not tolerable I would get checked by your doctor.

The hardest part is behind you and things get easier every day from here. I hope your pain relents soon. Good Luck

You will get stronger the further out you get from surgery. Did your dr recommend B12? Its great for energy. It really takes about six weeks to get the surgery behind you and feel normal. Hope you are pain free soon:-)

The energy will return and then you will not be able to hold yourself down. lol

Get gummy complete vitamins, a b12 vitamin, slowly add soft/pureed foods, some will sit well, others will not. Do not skip the protein! Force something into you as soon as you open your eyes, some yogurt or cottage cheese, eaten in small bite and slowly. Then drink a protein drink, whatever you prefer...slowly.

I opted for monthly B12 injections.

As others are saying, it sounds pretty normal. There were times in the first month that I would just have to lay down on the couch. After a month it was a ton better though.

As far as the pain is concerned, you should call your doctor. Though many of us experienced pain after surgery, it's best to talk that through with the doctor.

Things will get better, just be patient and remember that your body just went through a lot and then the energy it needs (food) to get better you have decided to not give it.
