Honestly right now I'm in a little pain but it's like a 3 out of 10 so that's good I guess. Getting hiccups isn't fun though. Did anyone get a binder to wrap their stomach? I have one and it's a little tight bit it feels good to have on. If u had did how often did you wear it? Till when?

Oh and by the way I haven't gotten sick like other patients do. That's awesome!!! I been sleeping in little portions lol weird
