Congratulations!!! Follow your Team's instructions and you will do fine. Heating pads work well for the tummy after surgery with the soreness and gas pains. Get an abdominal binder at the hospital it will also help.
I told my surgeon today at my last surgeon visit before my Monday surgery on the 17th. I told him that I had picked up SF sports drinks with electrolytes in it. (as one of my differant types of fluids) Your body will need it with the fluid-helps alot. He agreed.
It's all about-sip, sip, sip and walk, walk, walk and rest, rest, rest.
