I had my VGS surgery this morning. Everything went great.

The gas pain is no joke but it's manageable. So far my incision pain is low. I've been on several walks....for me walking is less painful than laying in bed or sitting in the chair.

Congrats to you @@camry2016

Well done on getting up for walks...

Keep us up to date with your recovery...

Even after all the abdominal surgeries I've had that involved being 'blown up', I can't remember for the life of me how it felt. Getting old really sucks, lol.

Congrats glad to hear ur having such a good recovery...Wish i could have said the same, i had 3 c-sections and though i knew pain but this was a shocker...i had surgery on 4-14 and i was in so much pain they gave me dilated (i thinks thats spelled right) because i cried from recovery and hrs into the night after they tried to manage me with morpahine and it didnt work...the pains in my chest and back took my breathe away and the pain in my stomach...smh...everyday is better but they say it was gas and i walked the following morning to find no relief...now a week later i still feel the gas in my chest and back but no were near the first couple days....i dont know but i havent heard any1 elses story of how it was for me...
