My date has been changed from jan 30th to jan 25th pre-op diet is very hard at night !! I really want cereal or toast!!!

i was at slimband as well! im really not liking this gas pain at all! i feel better this morning compared to yesterday and my port incision is really sore but other than that everything went well! how are you taking your mediciations???

Did I see you in the elevator by chance??

I'm only taking the first one. I haven't taken the Demerol. My port is sore too, and I feel like I need to burp but can't. Last night was uncomfortable but manageable

My port is super sore as well! I had the feeling this morning of what did I do to myself!!! The trapped gas in my shoulders really hurts too! At least it should only be a couple of weeks that we will hurt and then we will be back to normal

To me this **** hurts! Lol- yesterday the gas pain was bad. Today it still hurts but i feel like i did one thousand sit ups. I need help getting out of bed. And the pain meds im taking every four hours are just putting me to sleep. I still haven't looked at my stomach. I have no idea what it looks like! Im scared to look at it lol maybe im a baby who knows

I think it freakin hurts too. I need help getting in and out too. Constant feeling of wanting to burp. I've walked quite a but so I passed gas. I just took some Tylenol so it wouldn't make me sleepy but it really isn't mixing with my stomach. Heating pad is on. I'm ready to be non irritable.

Hang in there everyone. By day 4 or 5 you'll feel sooo much better!!!

anniearr yesss!!! that was me! lol looks like we're pretty much all going through the same pains... i still need help getting in and outta bed also.. my bed is very high off the ground so i borrowed one of my kids step thingies to help me get on and off my bed... the meds they prescribed me also put me to sleep but thats ok... i really want to chug down a cold glass of water or gatorade but i know... small and slow sips... i fill my mouth with cold cold water and then spit it back out (sorry tmi)

I'm sipping pedialyte and broth for supper was soooo tasty. My back is really sore though.

How yall doing today? I feel better now.. But who knows how it'll be in an hour or so..

Took my first shower today. Are yall washing the incisions? Is there anything i should be using? I didn't scrub my belly at all just let the water run over.

I was told i cant shower until tomorrow

I can't either but it's gonna be the best shower ive ever had.
