Hello everyone I had my surgery on the 21 and I can say I wm in pain

Oooh after reading all the posts about pain' date=' im alittle more nervous. Guess i need to research more as i didnt think about having pain after the surgery...heck im dealing with so much pain pre surgery, i was hoping pain would go away post sur. Ughhhh... But im still gonna do it no matter what.[/quote']

It honestly isn't that bad. After 4 days I didn't really need the pain killers anymore. Of course in the hospital they have good drugs so that was awesome. The ride home was the worst part but was bearable. After several days it just felt like I'd done a lot of sit ups.

I agree. I barely had any pain and wished I had done it long ago. I didn't need anything more than Tylenol. Everyone is different and if you have never had surgery before I'm sure it seem awful. I've had 4 abdominal surgeries and for me this was easy... Back to work 2 weeks. Take the meds if you need them.

Hi my name is Joy and I just got my date. August 14. The nerves are starting to kick in.

Im from Massachusetts. I'm really looking forward to my new lIfe with my family after.
