    Is it like a burning pain inbetween left incision and belly button? Like on the skin ? Maybe a little under but not actual stomach?

I pray that you start feeling better soon.

I am a week out and feel pretty good.. I have very little pain around my largest incision. I normally sleep at an angle and found doing the first few days and on occasions now that I am sleeping on my back.

I have the same problem. Everything feels pretty good except for the large incision onmy left. It makes moving very painful and I have to position myself at a ridiculous angle and then stay still in order to sleep.

YEP. I slept in a chair for about 9 days. it was the most comfortable thing for me. I didn't have a recliner but I had this large leather chair and a foot rest. Good enough, so thats what I tell people to do. A recliner would have been even better though

I slept in the recliner for the first few days till i was able to sleep in bed. Now at 3 weeks out I'm sleeping on my stomach again. Been doing that for about 2 weeks now.
