My upper abdomen hurts a lot. It feels like my skin is on fire. The pain meds I'm on isn't cuting it. Going to call the doctor.

Thanks everyone. I'm taking 2 oxycode per 4 hours with tylenol and it's not even touching the pain. The surgeon told me they have to cut through muscle and my port is right there too, so that's what causing the pain. I haven't been hungery though! Been sipping on my liquids and carrying a water bottle with me while I walk around the house. Next time, bowel regimen! Fun times!!
