When Does The Pain Die Down?

Had surgery yesterday, and they told me to keep walking but I can't even stand up straight. When I lay on my back for too long and try to get up, it feels like my stomach alone is 100 pounds and it feels like my insides are stretched to the limit. Is this normal? I've had to religiously take my pain meds plus some.

How long it this soreness and tightness going to last?

    Is anyone having nausea? I am still having nausea (my surgery was 6-5), which makes me worry that my body is rejecting my band.
