just had surgery need advice

[ladydoz]

I had surgery on Monday and I just want to make sure that what I am feeling is correct. I have had a half can of cream of shrimp soup, one half bottle of protein drink and a popsicle, and 8 ounces of water today and I just cannot seem to hold anymore does this sound like enough for a day so soon after surgery. I just want to make sure this is right. Can anyone tell me.:ohwell:

No, you don't have to worry yet. I actually called my Doc's PA and asked her that point blank. Its not so critical just yet. You just need time to heal. Congratulations!!!
