not too bad the only pain I feel is the co2 in the abdomen and chest, feel like I can't burp, but the initial walk around the recovery floor is alleviating that... honestly the worse part by far was the anticipation and fear. Thanks Dr. Mir Ali and the staff at Fountain Valley Regional... it's been a great experience this far

Hello! I wish you the best of luck and a super speedy recovery!

You look awesome so soon after surgery. Unfortunately my family has a strict no social media while medicated policy after some unfortunate pics my daughter sent out after her appendectomy while in college. [emoji23] I have to support the family!

Congratulations

Hi Mamalala, do you remember a certain point when the pain subsided? I was feeling great at the hospital, but I’m in more pain that I am at home.

I was released 24 hours after the surgery after a night of a lot standard test, a few laps around the recovery floor and two visits with the physical therapist... I'm home now ..other then drinking a bit too much juice with my vitamins, which resulted with it coming back up, I've been sleeping fine and up and about just conscious of the delicate nature I find myself in . honestly it wasn't too bad... it was the fear that weighed me down the most..but all that is now gone.

The pain was horrible the first night since then I've been sore but it's been better. Just try to walk around it might be air or gas

BROOKS 1138 ---Fountain Valley Hospital is in California, am I correct?, Sounds as if they treated you very fine.?

44 hrs after the surgery...
took half a valium to knock out...otgerwise no significant pain, and I've actually slept on my stomach...things are normal, someone asked if I was grossed out by food, I said no it smells good what they are eating but it's a feeling like when you have the flu, you can't eat because you just can't (in your mind)...i over did it on the juice a couple times when taking my vitamins and it came back up...so I gotta be real mindful how much liquid is coming in..
