  9. My first post op cycle started Monday. I have been in so much pain. The cramps and body aches are horrible. I'm lucky I didn't start a few days post op, but I am so sore. My period feels like it has gotten worse after surgery. Since we r so limited, what r u guys taking for the pain? Do u guys think your periods r worse?
  10. Hi Everyone! I'm 3 weeks post op and never thought I would say this, but I feel GREAT today!!!!! Eating has become such a chore for me (thank GOD) it doesn't mean what it use to to me. Simple things make me happy. I still have that fear of getting sick so I don't push it. If things stay like this, I will b ok! It has been a heck-of-a 3 weeks. The pain after surgery was out of this world for me. BUT look at me know!!!! It was SO worth it Enjoy this wonderful Wednesday Family!!!!
