Thank you all! I was in quite a lot of pain directly after, so I definitely made sure to get my pain meds on time and not try and just stick it out! This pain is no joke! I have been getting up and walking in between sleeping and the nurses are impressed. It has helped a ton with pain! It feels much better than lying down. I did sip too much water with my meds and almost felt like it was all coming back up but I kept it down. Now I know my limits on fluids. Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers!
