Thank you, the losers bench part feels amazing, it's the gas pain is what sucks ???? I'll survive ???? I've got a pretty tall bed I've got to get in and out of, and I'm worrying I've done something to my insides. I had the hiccups from hell for about an hour and thank goodness they subsided. But it left my stomach crammpy feeling. I guess I'll take more pain meds.

I hate that we are scaring you ???? it'll pass pain wise and I know it. It just sucks ever so gently lol it is amazing though how correct everyone has been on here, that walking is really a huge help.

I'll have my multi to take tomorrow, so we'll see if that's the case for me to. My doc gave me a huge bottle of hydrocodone/ Loritab. It helps take edge off. Hopefully the gas in my stomach will disappear more ????

Congrats on being on the losers bench now. Good to know that the gas pain subsides ???????? lol it's definitely coming out lol Good luck on your journey and I hope you heal quickly ???? I'm excited to hear how smoothly everything has gone from y'all. Yes, I'm from the South! Only 13 days to go!!! I can hardly wait! Please continue to keep us posted!Thanks ????❤️ I'm very fortunate that it's going so well. I'm so happy for you! I'm praying I'll have the same results! How was the pain? I have pain tolerance, but I don't know what to expect.High pain tolerance. Thank you for the prayers ???????????? the pain wasn't to crazy at all. It's just mainly gas in your tummy area pain that's all. Pain meds helped make me relax to the point I could sleep. But when it started to wear off I could sense it.

Well I made it home safely, being driven home wasn't as painful as expected. The pillow trick definitely helped. I was in the hospital for 24 hrs, not to bad if ya ask me. My inscision's are looking really good for just a day out. They glued the outside, so it's seamless. For the most part the staff at hospital were nice. I definitely wasn't fawned over, I did have to ask every 3 hrs for pain meds. I wasn't given a morphine pump like so folks do ???? it was very inconvenient I tell us.. But at least it kept me informed when I received and outta pain.

Thank you very kindly ????

Thanks so much ❤️

It's 5:10am and they just took my catheter out(thank goodness) and I was just told to start drinking from my CC cup.. My pain is at a 5 on a scale from 1-10. I have a pretty high pain tolerance. The gas trapped inside I think is the worst of it. I have been scared to move around in bed, scared I'll pull something in my new stomach area. The Doc should be in at 6am so I'll post an update with his information.

No sipping for me yet ???? just ice chips. I just completed my first lap so yay on walking. I wasn't in as much pain sitting up as I thought I would be. Thanks for advice.

Thank you.. And yes I'm focusing on healing. I've been listening to Buddhist monks chanting on my iPhone ???? and that helps ❤️

Still very tender and tons of gas pain. I need another hit of pain medication. They didn't give a pain pump, so I get to ask every 4 hrs for something to take the edge off. Dr said everything went great. I've not seen him yet so I look forward to speaking with him. I'll post more updates when I start to feel up to it????

Your new life is just beginning! Happy things went well!Thank you ???? I'm pretty sore right now, I expected a bit less pain but totally manageable. I wasn't given a pain pump. They give pain meds every 4 hrs ???? so I'm already needing more at 2 hrs

Everything went perfect ???? definitely sore, but pain mess are helping some. It still has a bit of an irritating pain in stomach area.
