a CT scan they found a softball sized hematoma on Friday and by the following Monday I couldn't stand it any longer I went to the emergency room I got it in at 11 and by 4 p.m. they did an emergency surgery turn into an infection they had to drain it and I think the worst pain I've ever felt in my entire life is when they packet and unpack the gauze two and a half Days it's getting a little better but it's still the most painful thing I've ever seen in my life God bless old people and I hope there's a special place in hell for people that Miss treats old people that can't take care of themselves I'm sure there's elderly people in nursing homes that can't take care of themselves and nobody takes the time to do stuff easily them

The day of my surgery when I was wheeled into my room I had to use the bathroom. When I got up one of my sutchers had broke open. I was covered in blood..gown from breast down, bed had to be removed a new one brought in, floor mopped. It was bad. The nurses put a gauze and tape over it. The bleeding stopped. But evidently it bleed under the skin, no bruising. I was having considerable pain they said it was gas. 9 days later at post op appt. Dr. Said he thought it was muscle spasm which kinds stood to reason with how I felt. Ordered a CT scan for Monday. Scan showed softball size hematoma. Anyone have had experience with this? Anything I can do to help it disolve quickly? Just think of shoving a softball inside by your ribs and continuing on. Please any ideas help. I'm using with hazel and massaging it. If you have ever had a cyst its that sensitive

Dude you are a life saver. I feel the same way...good...weepy...gripy there isnt let up unles I'm doped. Can see an end in sight now.

OMG! I think I love you. I dreamed last night it burst open and I was freaked but it felt SO much better. Do u remember about how long it took to break open? I still have super glue on i. I'm post op 16 days. Bring on the yuck factor just for some release! Otherwise I feel good. Again THANK YOU SO MUCHD IM ALMOST IN TEARS

Thank you guys so much for the information. Ice seems to help better then heat MOSTLY! Otherwise I fell pretty darn good, but this is just wearing me down with the pain. Dr prescribed valium for the muscles which helps a lot but of course can't take them at work! Lol I'd be approving all kinds of stuff! Or be lights out!

I am 8 days post and have had gas pain from the beginning. Can't catch my breath pains. Please tell me it'll get better! Please!

Ty I am taking the gas x but it is for the stomach. This gas is more from where they add it to your bisy during surgery. Sorry James...I meant body. I was sitting yesterday talking to someone when I had a gas bubble move...they could SEE it move! Lil aliens in me! BTW I have walked and it really doesn't do much. Lol was wondering if anyone else has gas this bad? Otherwise I feel great?!

If I cheat one time what does that do to my 14 day liquid only diet?

Blackcatmatt.....talk to me about wanting a bite of something when you can't have it and your stomach is gnawing through! Let me know then please. I've worked my butt off to get this surgery...been months of waiting, forgive me for being human. Thank you for the reply. Im 6 days in my 14 days before surgery and it is tough.

Have you tried gnc lean 25 shakes? I like them better than anything.
