First Great Day, Post Op

Hi! I am Taylor, and I have not uploaded my story yet, but I just wanted let any and everyone know that this is the first day, post op, (surgery was on Thursday, 5-24-12) that I've not felt that I've been hit by a Mack truck or had a knife stuck in my back! My sutures and stomach have been sore but have not caused any real pain at all. The big issue has been constant back pain, especially on the lower left side. I am so thankful I'm more able to actually get comfortable in more than one position today. I've also lost 11 lbs in five days! That's never happeneded. :)
