2 days post-op

I'm on day post-op. today is worse than yesterday. I'm having bad back and stomach pain. I went in today for my day after surgery check up. Everything was fine except I still have 6 fist size gas bubbles that are creating a lot of pain. I was advised to take milk of magnesia and gas x to try and get rid of some gas in my tummy. The nurse also relieved some tension from my port && I felt good for about an hour but every time I sit it still hurts to get up :(

How did she relieve tension from ur port?

Nancy, she found my port and stuck a needle in it as if she was doing a fill, but instead she pulled air out. I immediately felt relief!
