newme2013 8 Posted October 8, 2012 I'm on Day 5... I'm not hungry.. I'm following my liquid diet as instructed by doctor... I'm still sore where my large incision is and it hurts to get up or lay down still... I had a hernia repair with my surgery on Oct 4th. I am very bloated.. My stomach is HUGE. Is this normal?. It's just bigger than usual.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wildrose1966 396 Posted October 8, 2012 Yes totally normal. I am 3 weeks post op and still a bit bloated. Gas pains come and go, mostly if I have been sitting and still passing gas like mad. 1 newme2013 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mayasgram 351 Posted October 8, 2012 Totally normal, you had surgery they filled you full of gas and your bodys swollen on the inside isn't that just not fair. We have this surgery to get skinny and we feel pregnant .... sorry men but now you know... it will go away . Walking really helps and so does Gas X. 2 newme2013 and ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
