it has been a few days since my surgery.. had it done thursday AM, and it's now sunday AM, i have excruciating pains in my stomach from time to time. it constantly feels like i pulled a muscle in my abdomen. it hurts when i lay down, and then get up/when i sit down, and then get up. basically, getting up HURTS. i've tried walking, i go on like 3/4 walks a day outside, i walk around my house pretty actively, i just want this pain to decrease! it hasn't gone away even a little bit. is there something wrong?

be honest! i was too honest with the psychiatrist and told them i was in recovery for drugs, they postponed my surgery for 4 months and i was very upset, but in the end realized it was gods will and not mine. i wasnt meant to have the surgery then, and i just had it done this past weekend and it was the perfect time to have it done. just be honest and everything will work itself out

i am new here, just signed up, just had my procedure done. i am very nervous. it's my third day after surgery and i still have pains like i have a pulled muscle. is this normal? it hurts in certain positions when lying/sitting down, and i'm not sure i should shower in this sort of discomfort.
