    Good Luck! It's been 1 weeks since my surgery. Just remember the reason why you're doing this. It helped me through tough moments when I had pain. And if you have no help taking showers, I put my hair band around my neck and pinned my drain to it and it helped taking showers! God bless you and I wish you the best of luck!:)

    Yes I went home the same day as my surgery. I've been feeling pretty good. The worst part in the beginning was the gas pains. The incisions are sore but manageable. The only thing bothering me now is the GI spasms but the medication takes care of them. I've been so lucky to have no nausea or vomiting.
