Day 4 post op

I had a minor set back yesterday. Late in the morning, I looked down at my arms and saw that a rash had developed. My forearms were covered in colorless, painless and itch-free bumps. I almost didn't believe it. I checked out my belly, nothing. Then I checked out my legs and the bumps were there too. Of course I immediately called the doc. It turns out that I had a reaction to the narcotic.

My belly is still really large, but not as uncomfortable. I stepped on the scale this morning and was shocked to see the number. 231. During intake at the hospital, I weighed in at 238. That was four days ago and I had been fasting for 10 days prior to intake.

I am anxious to start taking protein because I don't want to loose much more muscle.

To sum up. No more narcotics. The bumps are almost gone. Losing weight and feeling great on day 4.
