Mine is today, 3rd day after 10/15 surgery. I came home yesterday at 2:30 pm. As long as I was in the hospital, getting morphine, fluids, aceteminiphen drip, nausea shots and walking a lot I felt decent. I passed a lot of gas by burping and did walk about 3 - 4 times per day the day of the surgery and the day after. The nausea started last night. I got some meds for that and have to take it before I can take the Loratab. The nausea meds only give me about a 2 hour window without nausea to get some proteins in. I am drinking sips of water even when nauseous.

4th and 5th. For me, those days were the worst for glass pains.

Please call your doctor and ask for different, better nausea meds. You need to be able to drink you Water and Protein shakes.

Take good care of yourself!

For me, I think it was about the third day, then a breeze since. The most discomfort I had was pulling myself forward in my recliner to get up. I finally switched to my other recliner which is a lift recliner, then all things settled down. Only problem I am having now is that I can't eat things like deli meat which is on my list to try, so I eat like tuna salad, chicken salad, egg salad, Wendy's chilli, cottage cheese, string cheese, sf puddings, and I can eat crackers with the chilli and T & C salads, but limited. Anything that is moist goes down quite well and stays. Otherwise, I slime and then it comes up. Uck.

Immediately after surgery, I guess the first 24 hours were bad and that was just due to the pain, I had no nausea or anything like that just pain. I walked a lot which helped with the gas too !!! After the first 24 hours each hour after that I got better and better

As soon as I woke up from surgery to the next 2 days were horribleeee

I just got home from the hospital yesterday (my surgery was 10/15). I'd have to say that the first 24hrs were by far the worst. I didn't understand the pain, and not being able to make myself become comfortable in any position really messed with me. The nausea wasn't too bad, but definitely there.

My nausea was the worst right after waking up. My pain was the worst right after they took me off of the pain pump. I was miserable. I was all good tho by day 3

I didn't really have any pain. I was uncomfortable like I had just done some major workout and my back and stomach muscles were the target. However that got better by day 3. Also I was really only feeling sick the day after surgery... and now when I take my pills. It passes quickly though! I will be 4 weeks out Monday!

The 2nd day after surgery. I had been able to sleep a few hours that night without all the beeping of the machines (still in the hospital but out of the ICU). So I hadn't pressed my pain meds button while I was sleeping. When I woke up I was in so much pain I couldn't move. I had to press the button every 10 minutes for the next hour to get the pain down enough to get up and go use the bathroom.
