Sugery This Moning

I had my surgery this morning. I'm in so much pain. Very weak and feel like I was hit by Mack truck over and over. When will I feel better?

It takes a good five days or so to feel back to semi normal.. Are you in the hospital still?

Are you walking? Even if you don't feel like it,

It really helps. Most of us felt horrible the first couple of days and thought about "what have I done" but I promise it will get better :)

Laura is right. It DOES get better and walking is the key. Stay strong!

I had my 4 wk post pop today, it the 1st week I can say I was pain free. It takes a full week for the dry mouth, gas pains and exhaustion to subside. Maybe another full week until no more muscle pain in the abdomen. Third week you'll start feeling better, but will still have low energy. Just focus on managing through the pain for today/tonight. Get up and walk the halls! You have to move to get the gas out.
