question for other post-ops

[Guest guest]

I haven't been ok'd yet on the post-op site so I'm hoping some of the

post-ops here will help me with this one. The only (and I do mean

only) thing that has bothered me since surgery on Thursday is that

last night I started to feel like the back of my throat was sore.

When I swallow it feels like there is something back there that won't

go down. Dr. R says he has heard that from various patients and its

not serious and will eventually go away. My question is have any of

you experienced this and if so, do some juices, liquids etc make it

better or worse.

Other than that, things are great. My mom and I got up early this

morning and spent two hours at the NC State Fair walking around!! I

just stopped and sat when I needed to and as soon as I felt I'd had

enought we left. Now I'm resting for the remainder of the day til

dinner with everyone here in Durham tonight.
