I had my surgery 8/18 and had a hernia repair, too that I didn't know about. I feel sloshy and tho I'm not having trouble getting liquids down, the rumbling and gurgling of liquids in my belly feels odd.
I'm just four days post-op and I didn't do well with the liquid loritab when they took me off the IV drip, so they put me back on dilaudid in tablet form and sent me home with a script for the same. I was lucky and had fabulous nurses in the hospital. I'm just wondering when I will be able to tolerate the pain without meds. My tummy has sharp pains when I move if I let the pain meds wear off.
I had my surgery 4 days ago and didn't experience gas pain. I was worried sick about this, too, but turns out to be a non-issue for me. I only walked a couple of times a day.
