I'm 13 days post op and everyday gets a little easier. I went without chest pain for 4 days then it hit me a little bit yesterday. How are you doing?

Go to a mall and walk for a few hours (2-3 hours top). You will feel so much better once you get home.

I totally got the same thing too and regretted the surgery the first week or two. When everyone tells you it gets easier there telling the truth. I'm almost four weeks out and I feel amazing compared to the first couple weeks. If you can swallow pills I used the extra strength gas pills, the gas strips are good but half the meds as you can get in the pills. I'm still taking them daily because of the gas, but they help! Walking every hour for 15 min will help too! Good luck girl, feeling better is right around the corner!

Thank you...IM trying to stay positive. Today I just miss the feeling biting into some food. Every day It gets better...or maybe IM just dealing with it all a little better than the day before but IM hanging in there. Have you been missing certain foods? what do you do when you crave for certain things?
