The day after!

I'm laying here and doing fairly well. I have had decaf coffee, chicken broth, Popsicles and water. What hurts us my left side, under my rib age, like someone stabbing me... Thoughts or insight?

      I didn't fart for the first time until right before I came home, mostly burping which my doc was happy with. The embarrassing thing was the fart was awful and right afterward my pharmacy tech came to

    The left side is where most of your pain will be...it is where they do most of the "work"....my surgeon told me beforehand to expect it. A heating pad helped me...and of course pain meds:)

    Thanks ladies. Doc thought maybe small hematoma and put ice on it. I was expecting a lot more pain, so I am excited to drink with no complications. Now, if I could fart! Ugh.....

The embarrassing thing was the fart was awful and right afterward my pharmacy tech came to consult on my post op meds. Icky! I felt bad, but he was totally cool about it. Still mostly just burping (4 days post op) unless I am lying down.
