Hello all! I've been reading the forum for the past couple of months, thank you all for the great advice and sharing your experiences. It's been very helpful and informative! I met with the surgeon a week ago today, my surgery date is June 26. Anyone else for June?

Curious, do any of y'all have left side pain? My doctor told me right before he took me back that I would have left side pain for a while because its the biggest incision and it would be stitched down to a muscle. That incision is still sunk in and my side hurts. It's day 11 and I thought it would be over by now. Any one else??

New mommy, mine hurts! I actually scared myself into thinking it was major yesterday lol. So I spoke with the nurse and she said its normal. It's the insides healing up. It should be gone within a week. Feel better!

My biggest pain is in my top incision, right under my breast none/sternum because that muscle is used the most and the "girls" hit it too, lol. My largest incision is right in the center of my stomach...where they pulled the stomach, hiatel hernia and gallbladder through....

Suppositories! Every 4-6 hours with everything else going on... leave my butt alone! That would've annoyed me! I have liquid tylenol.

Brandnew...I totally agree and cracked up when I read this!!!

yep im still hurting in the spot they took out the stomach the most and it hurts all over when standing and sitting,i only use the pain meds if its extreme.

Yikes! Note to self: find an allergy med I can take after surgery and do NOT forget to take it! I sneeze quite a bit this time of year (I live in the edge of a valley which is farming country, and there's a lot of haying that happens this time of year) ...

Thanks for the warning!

Oh no!! I have hiccupped and laughed and they hurt enough....have not coughed or sneezed yet...thanks for the warning!!

no problem my first sneeze since the surgery if anyone else has any warninigs or firsts please let me know.

Sneezing is ridiculous. So is coughing.

Oh dude the coughing . Bad stuff.

i can sort of handle the cough , i was at the end of a cold before surgery ,i was coughing up conjestion beforehand and i still am not too bad for me

I have sneezed a bunch!! I start breathing really deep and it helps them go away. Idk lol
