**IP~LB** 279 Posted December 13, 2012 Congratulations!! I am 12 days out and I am finally back to normal. The first few days LOTS of discomfort, but I walked and walked and used heating pad. Day 4 off pain killers. Good Luck!! It will get better very very soon for you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nicolemm 24 Posted December 14, 2012 I had surgery yesterday also. The gas x strips aren't working very well but as odd as it sounds, SF Popsicles are actually relieving my gas! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
