Day 5 Post Op

According to my nurses, everything went well. However I did tell the anaesthesia that I was very sensative to the drugs. they make me hurl. So after a quick outpatient surgery I was sent home. Only to land myself back in the hospital that night. I couldn't stop throwing up, which worried us because of band slippage. The doctors said it was due to ...the anaesthesia!!! The hospital releases me the next day but now I can't get rid of this constant left shoulder pain. This surgery did not make me very happy, and I can't stand pain. :scared2:

I used a heating pad and it helped with all the gas pains. I had a lot in the shoulder too. Also I walked around the house. Everyday gets better n better! Hang in there. Best of luck to u.

How are you doing now? I had surgery the day before yesterday and I'm miserable. The pain is awful! I've had 2 c-sections and bounced right back, but I'm having a hard time with this one.

I am doing better. I know EXACTLY what you are feeling. You posted awhile ago, so I am thinking that you are doing better as well. I think that days 6-7 I really turned a corner as far as pain went. I hope that you are feeling better. Sorry it took so long to respond.

I also wanted to mention that my doctor said that the shoulder pain that most patients felt was the exact same feeling that people feel when they are having a heart attack! ~crazy Scary~
