On my 3rd day in hospital and currently on pain relief for my shoulder area and right chest area. Can swallow ok but throat sore from tubes etc during op. I could sip water on first day and yesterday had tomato soup ice cream and jelly. So pretty good so far. Have also started the wind release which is a great sign everything working. No reflux at all which is great and am able to walk about although very slowly. Hopefully I will go home today

So good to hear Rufus!! Well done sounds like you’re on the same pattern as me the worst part was the shoulder pain ...... keep walking and take meds ...... anti inflammatory suppositories were my best friends for two weeks and now I’ve stopped then and the pain has gone!
Look forward to hearing of your recovery cheers Rosie
