today makes 5 days since my surgery i dont have alot of stomach pain, but woke up this morning with lower back pain, anyone have this?

hi hoping, i had alittle bit of it. i promise, all the pain will eventually go away. hang in there.

I am on day 5 as well and my back hurts. I figure it is a combo of gas, not standing straight up, and wearing a bad bra (for me). I am having more issues with diarrhea and stomach ache. I ate my first little bit of mashed potatoes/soup and protein shake yesterday and it has tore my stomach up. I am not sure if it is to thick, creamy, or what but man I am paying for it!

Are supposed to be on mushies? Mashed potatoes would have been week 3 or 4 for me.

i was on liquids for 2 wks after surgery.........just be careful..and rest up
