Yayyy! Keep in touch!

Everyone said walk - do it!!! It makes things much easier! Feeling mostly sore now. Not terrible gas pains.

apcc, great to here surgery went well. walking does help with a speedy recovery!!

Okay, so tonight the soreness has really kicked in. I am super, super sore. Very little gas pain though. I do have a tiny bit of reflux, but I'm thinking that's because I've been burping.

I hope you feel better tomorrow. Try and get some rest.

You will be better in a couple of days. Take your pain meds and relax. The worst part is over. Time to start your new life!!! I know you can do it!!

Yeah, I keep waiting for gas pain. I've had very little. When I neednto burp though, it feels like I'm going to vomit so that's a little weird. I honestly didn't expect to be burping so much...I thought is be busier on the other end LOL!
