Okay today was my first day back to work and my body is hating me... I have a desk job but my seat is low and my left side feels like muscles are pulling when I walk... I'm being very careful not to lift, etc... I still think to work an 8 hour shift after not working for a full 2 weeks my body is rebelling! I hope it gets better every day! Oy!

I felt the same way... And I also work in a desk job. Sitting upright all day did a number on me. I felt sore for the first week. Try to get up from your desk and walk a little bit every so often. Good luck!

I went back to work after two weeks. I'm a teachers I can sit as well but we had in service the first week and I was in hell from all the sitting in uncomfortable chairs. I felt like my abdomens was ripping open with every wrong move. A month back to work now I'm ok and it only hurts every so often :) hope it gets better for you

It will get better. I think by week 4 I felt like I had never had surgery (except I couldn't eat as much). Hang in there.

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
