Hey everyone I had surgery on Monday and have been recovering really well.. Had gas pains, was a bit sore and sleepy from the anaesthetic.

Last 2 days have felt great and probly been more

Active than I should be.. I went to work today for a few hours, then I was baking cakes for an epic birthday cake - a lot of benign down and up.

About an hour ago I had an aggressive stab of pain in the left of my belly like something is pulling. It is really sensitive and can barely sit down without agony and feeling like I have pulled something - and that's after prodiene forte.

Is this common / should I just take it easy? Or should I be heading to a gp first thing in the morning (Saturday).

Also the bruising has gotton worse around the bigger Bandaid ill try and add a photo - dont know if this is normal or i should be alarmed - my surgeon didnt talk about any of this!

Thanks for your help!!

Between the pain and bruising, suggest you seek medical treatment soon. At the very least if its nothing, can help put your mind at ease, whilst if it is something more serious, the earlier the intervention the better.

Call the Drs office !

Call the doctor... they all have on call staff to answer you! We are not doctors, so call one when you need it!

WHOA!!!!!

Thanks everyone - when I woke up the pain was completely gone and back to normal. My doctors offices aren't open on weekend and I don't think a gp will do much - so unless the pain comes back I will wait until Monday an call my surgeon then.. The bruising hasn't changed at all
