Saturday August 7

274.5

I don't know how I gained weight going in for stomach surgery. Well I do. It was all of the IV they pumped into me.

The surgery went very well. I checked in the hospital Thursday August 5 at 7:00 AM and checked out Friday August 6 at around 8:30 AM.

There are 7 incisions. He repaired my hernia. I was given 4 shots of heprin to help prevent blood clots. A few shots of prevacid to reduce the risk of ulcers. They alternated me between oxycodon and hydrocodon every two hours. I am on Roxycet right now.

I walked a lot yesterday but today it's raining. I might have to go out in the rain.

I drink from one ounce medicine cups. I am suppose to drink a minimum of 80 a day. I am on a liquid diet for one month but no portien until I see the Dr. next week so I think I might be pretty week. Right now the best things that sound good to me are water and V-8. I have had some V-8 splash but the sweet doesn't taste so good.

The meds are wiping me out but I don't want the pain to get away from me. But I really haven't felt any.

Time for more meds.
