So I had the procedure 3/3/15. Thought it was the worse decision I ever made. I would have rather had 6 labor and deliveries or this surgery. I don't do well with pain meds... Therefore I didn't get a great amount of relief like most people do. Nausea has been rough. Every drink I've taken I felt pain going thru top to bottom. Diarrhea is an issue too. Running to the bathroom like I have a GI bug. All and all this is day 3 post op. Today has been a better day. Less nausea and pain. This morning I had trouble taking fluids in without stomach pains or running to the bathroom. But I took a little nap, woke up and chewed my flinestone vitamin and my tums, than chased it down with a sugar free orange Popsicle and I have to say it layed well so far. Getting ready for my next tramadol for pain, and I'll have to take some more carafate to coat my stomach. Has anyone else experienced this much pain/discomfort post op? My best friend had her's done 6 months ago, and she had none of these symptoms she had it so easy. ???? please give input.
