traceyeliza Posted August 28, 2008 Report Posted August 28, 2008 If I have read the literature correctly, I should be able to start creamy soups on the seventh day correct? That would be the minimum day. Also, are the incisions supposed to feel pretty hot? Just curious, I don't feel like I have an infection (and it doesn't look like it) but I just wanted to make sure. TIA!!
momonamission Posted August 28, 2008 Report Posted August 28, 2008 I do not know. It is strange how I can forget the details.
FRANCIE Posted August 28, 2008 Report Posted August 28, 2008 Hi! Creamy soups start on day seven, you are correct. When were you banded? Are your incisions red or swollen? Do you have a fever? If they are hot I would suspect an infection. You probably should call the OCC> Good luck!

OICU812 Posted August 29, 2008 Report Posted August 29, 2008 My post op diet instructions said clear liquids for 7 days, then add yogurt for 2 days and creamy soups on days 10 to 21.
