Help needed in Arizona

I am two days post op and I'm having severe pain. I feel like I was kicked in the stomach by 10 men. When I eat I can feel every drop of whatever I consume burning in my stomach. I normally take pain very well. I read in here how everyone had zero to mild pain. How is that? Anyone else experience what I'm feeling and any suggestions to help? I am walking to remove to excess gas and I am only having water and jello like I was told. HELP!!!

I had soooo much trouble with what felt like my lungs but was actually my lungs pressing on my diaphragm when I inhaled. I had a hiatal hernia repair at the same time and that made the pain much worse. Hugging a pillow while I tried to take a deep breath and cough (which I had been told to do regularly) helped a lot. So did a really steamy shower to get the lungs clear.

The shower and pillow defiantly helped. Thank you for the advice ❤️❤️❤️
