The gas pains eased up by the 5th or 6th day for me and were completely faded by day 9. I wasn't able to drink the liquid pain meds and did without.

It could be your diaphragm is bruised from the drain, if you had a drain. That took a day or two for me to feel better. I never had any gas pains, thank goodness. I heard they were pretty painful.

I had incisional pain in the first two days, then I had stomach pain like cramps or something like this till day #9.

So I would say 10 days to two weeks then you will be pain free.

If you think you are really in pain you should go to the ER. In the fifth day I had stomach pain and I thought it was a leak , but turned out it was stomach or muscle cramps.

Hopefully you will get well soon.

I hope it gets better. My pain was fully gone by day five or so. The gas pains are a bitch!

@@baylorbears281 glad to hear it :)
