I am surprised they don't give you enough pain medication to keep you comfortable. Having the pain under control has a big factor on the healing process. When they ask you to rate your pain make sure you rate it high, don't let them think that you are only in a little pain. Also when they get your pain under control make sure you stay on top of the pain, ask for something when you start to feel uncomfortable. Don't wait until the pain gets worse. Hope they get your pain under control and you start to feel better, try to get some rest.

I'm day three post op. Feeling a lot better hang in there, sleep as much as you can.

You can do it! Stay positive and just remember it will get better.

Thanks everyone!!!

I didn't even want to look at my cell on first day lol let alone post in the forums. Like someone said my surgeon made clear it's all about pain and nausea control. They were really nice on constant rotations with meds, vitals, etc. I slept almost entire time my gf stayed with me watching tv, I barely spoke to her only waking up when nurses checked on me.

In other words ring that bell/button in your bed right now and say it hurts like an 7+ someone should arrive quick.

I'm home now.., not much pain right now. I have a lot of gas and pressure. Gas X chewable not help much.

Day 3 post op. Day 1 was horrible between pain and nausea. Today not so bad. No more nausea and pain is subsiding.
