    Hi I'm from Syracuse and am having my surgery with dr Graber on the 28th this month. Kinda nervous and excited. How is the pain after surgery? Can you still swallow medications that you need to take? Thanks all.

    Yay for you! I didn't really have much pain, but the gas discomfort was no joke. It was like up around my shoulders and made it difficult to get comfy. But, walking the halls relieved it a little, so I did a lot of that. And I was able to swallow pills right away without any problems.
