I used the T3 for about 4 days after I got out of the hospital and that was mainly at night. I would equate the feeling to more of a soreness, like you got punched in the stomach. The pain is really very tolerable.

Good luck!

I took one pain pill when I got home from the hospital, mostly because I felt I should. I had gall bladder surgery too and honestly, this was less pain for me. I was back at work within a week.

You will do great!

I'm 9 days post op and still using liquid vicodin. Just got a refill yesterday. The dr told me I'd probly be extra sore cuz it took him 30 mins to dig my band out from growing into my stomach. Ochy. When I wake up in the morning, I feel like I was hit by a semi. Takes about 30 minutes for the pain killer to take effect. And I'm not usually a big baby either. No clue why it hurts this bad for so long....

I too believe in pain killers - if I hurt the day I leave the hospital to fly home, you bet i'll be insisting on liquid Vicodin!!

I just had surgery last week and on the way home from the hospital, picked up the meds, and havent needed to use them at all. Not once!! SImply was no pain once I left. Hell I never even had any soreness at any of the incisions. CRAZY!! Everyones body is different
