You should be sipping round the clock, and eating 4-5 small meals daily well that's my hospital recommendation's. If you don't eat you will be tired and have no energy. I know the 1st week I was shattered beyond belief that was to do with anaethetic coming out and the big issues that had been carried out inside our bodies. WE need water not only tohydrate us but to help clean the wound clean inside then the protein helps promote healing. x
I I'm 6 days post op and feel really weak and 'not right' has anyone else had this?
Yes I was like that for the first few weeks, I felt absolutely dreadful, had absolutely no energy and felt dizzy a lot. When I spoke to the dietician she said it was quite common after surgery and with the sudden big reduction in calorie intake. She also advised to drink as much as I could. I only really picked up and felt much better after I had my b12 injection and moved on to 'proper' food. Hope you feel better soon x
