Hello Everyone, I am 24 hours post-op. I woke up in pain, but not that much pain as I expected. The nausea and dry-heaving was REAL as others previously described. This was cured by the medicine finally given to me as I stayed awake in recovery. Pain is extremely BEARABLE with the medicine in me. I am walking a lot more now and I feel better. I feel like someone who just did 500 sit-ups in 20 minutes, LOL . The hospital plans to release me at 3pm today. If anyone happens to have anymore stories about their adventures of their first day post-op? Please share them!!!

Sounds about like yours, minus the dry heaving Seems like you're doing well! Walk walk walk, sip sip sip!

I did have a terrible headache the whole time I was in the hospital. To this day, I don't really know why. It went away right before I was sent home.

Welcome to the losers bench and keep us posted on your progress!
