Today is the 6th day post op. I still feel in pain and have yet to feel any reap improvement. .I'm still on pain meds. I walk, sip, rest, walk, sip, rest and everyday I hope to wake up feeling a little better and still feel the same. Is this normal? Some people seem to bounce rite back and I'm quite shocked how this has knocked me down.

Everybody is different. Different ages, different pain tolerances, everything. I know I discovered early on that the pain meds were making me nauseous so I stopped taking them and actually discovered I didn't need them anyway! But that was me. Your body just went through major surgery and needs time to heal. Just keep trying to do what you need to do--walk, drink water, keep your food journal, etc. You'll get better! Really!
