Mine did the same thing, I had a two week follow up with my dr, he wasn't concerned either. He did say it could be because a stitch didn't disolve and was working it's way out. Later that day I could see it poking out(yuck!) It is not nearly as sore now but it is still gross!\

I don't remember saying anything I just cried! Sobbing really, I had started to calm down a little and the nurse asked me if I had any children and I tried choking out that I had 3 then started sobbing all over again I have only had to be put out two other times and I woke up each time in a similar fashion.

Good info!

Thanks!

Good for you!!! Keep up the great work!

I hope so becaue I am too! I am 8 days post op and it's slowed down a little but but I am a burping machine!

Hope you feel better soon!

Good for you!!!

What are miracle noodles? ??

I've notices on this and some other discussions that people at a similar stage to me ( 5 days post op) discussing there need/not need to use their pain meds.

Can I ask some of you what pain meds you were sent home with and the length of time your doc said you would need use of them?

As I said before I am 5 days post op and was sent home with NOTHING!! I've been suffering in silence and am beginning to think my doc is just plain meanîî

I was sent home with percocet, it was making me nauseous so I did'nt take anything on day 2 and it was awful. I called and they gave me another for the nausea called zofran. I have only been taking it a couple of times a day. I can't believe they sent you home with nothing!! I would call and ask for something! I hope you get some relief soon!

They didn't for me, thankfully!!!

I am day 5 today and for most of today the gas pain was better, there were a couple of times that I did need to take my pain meds. Each day it did get better. Hang in there!!

I am four days out, still some soreness. Today is the first day I have been hungry/able to eat(drink) anything, and I am really hungry today. I don't go back until the 28th and I guess I will start mushies then.......so far away

Day 3 has been better than day 2 for me but I feel so full of gas that I might float away! I have been walking around and around, started peppermint tea and gas x. I hope tomorrow is better! I had my gallbladder out last year and I remember my biggest problem was the gas. I at least haven't felt nauseous today so that's a step in the right direction!

This day two for me too and I have been down right miserable today! I had to get a prescription because of the nausea causes by my pain meds. If I had gotten run over by a truck I think I would be feeling better. I so hope that tomorrow is better!

I am so glad to hear that I am not the only one hungry, some days are ok but then there are the others that are terrible! Yesterday was a bad day! I was so hungry all day long, but I made it through, only two more days to go! Surgery on Monday!

My surgery is the 13th too! I have to be there are 6:30 for 8 surgery. I am excited to get this thing moving forward! And this liquid diet is awful!!!! I'm ready to not feel hungry! Good luck!

My surgery is on the 13th too! I am excited and maybe a little nervous, mostly worried about the 'stuck' feeling....I hope that doesn't happen too often! Good luck to you!
