  2. Dr. Said I could go home same day but I stayed one night cause the trip from hospital was 2 and half hours and wasn't sure is be comfortable. Good luck!
  3. I'm on liquids and love hot & spicy soup!

  7. 3 days post op for me. Had a lot of pain first nite but really no gas pain. Stayed in hospital for one nite. Still kinda hard to get in and out of bed. Tolerating liquids really well though. Have to keep reminding myself to drink slowly, but it didn't feel uncomfortable when I drank more/more often. Hope se all continue healing uneventfully!

  10. Lucky no gas pains ever! But it really hurts getting up from lying down and laying down. I've tried abdominal binder and support pillows. Any other ideas? Neither seems to make s difference!
