I had my surgery on March 10th and it went quite well. I woke up feeling like I had an elephant sitting on my chest, but was up and walking once I got back to my room. The mouth swabs were a life saver for my dry mouth and no water or ice chips allowed.I went home in two days and am recovering slowly. I feel very tired with no energy. I'm drinking two protein shakes and water. The shakes that I loved prior to surgery are making me nauseous.I'm going to try the instant breakfast. I got some V8 which tastes good to me. I also got squash soup and split pea to try. I have similar adversaries to taste and smell as when I was pregnant 40 years ago. I'm hoping to add some mushy food following my Dr.'s visit on Thursday. Do any of you have any suggestions? Sugar free popsicles are tasting way too sweet!!
