Hey Tammy, Honestly I never had any surgery besides a c-section. Because I didn't have experience, I was told laperscopic (forgive spelling) isn't so bad. Therefore I thought I would basicly feel nothing. LOL! Silly me. The surgery went great. and really I barely feel the actual insicions. But there is this very uncomfortable feeling coming from my stomache up to my throat. Not sure what it is. It actually hurts. It could be gas. If so it's a gas pain I have never felt before. I also have been very weak. This is probably personal to me and my body. I think between the surgery, pain killer, and the fact that I am anemic and ofcourse got my period the day of the surgery this weakness could be much worse for me then others. I don't want to turn you off, just be prepared for some pain and discomfort. I do have to say today is day 5 for me. I am feeling much much better. I have been up and around today alot. I stopped the pain killer yesterday. I only took it at bedtime last night and haven't had it yet today. Feeling really good today. The only thing now is that I am hungry because I am on the liqued diet. But I am hanging in there, sticking with the plan. I know as I slowly am able to eat things will get better. I hope all goes well for you. Keep in touch. Cindy
