  1. Coming out of surgery i was in a lot of pain. Most of my pain was gas and it mainly hurt in my chest/right side/shoulders. I still got up and walked laps and over the next few days i was feeling lots better. When I got home the heating pad helped sooooo much. Any time i spent in bed i alternated the heating pad from my back to my belly. Again, my pain was pretty severe, but just think… you’re having not 1 but 3 major surgeries! take your pain meds and walk as much as tolerated. I kept gas-x on hand for the first week. Some of the gas wasn’t gas that comes out through “passing” it. And my stomach was bloated for the first week/week and a half. after the first week, you will be so relieved to feel “normal-ish”. Prayers and good thoughts coming to you!!!
