My first few days were no picnic either. But, the good news is that it really does get better each day. You should be turning the corner any day now!

I wouldn't have used the word "uncomfortable" for the first few days. The word was "hurt." Not everybody flies through the recovery or doesn't need the pain meds. I used them solidly for the first 3 days and then every time I got in a car because the bumps HURT!

Some sage advice I have often heard here applies for at least the first two weeks:

NEVER TRUST A FART!

I had my surgery November 17th, and I agree. It was a lot worse than I ever expected. I had so much pain for a little over a week. I feel great now, all except I have NO energy what so ever, just a simple shower and get ready weears me out. I here this happens, and hopefully soon I will get some energy back. Good Luck...

I didn't come up with that warning. I read it on here - a couple days too late for me, unfortunately! ohmy.gif

For the gas and farts, my surgeon prescribed "Powdered Nexium." You mix it with a Tablespoon of Water and drink it down, it tastes orangey. Helps a LOT.

Good luck with the pain! Call your doctor and ask for PAIN KILLERS.

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
