First off, welcome to VST, we are happy to have you join us here.

Are you making sure you are getting enough fluids in? I experienced similiar pain, and it turned out I was dehydrated, the pain I was experiencing was a result of a urinary tract infection, which came from my being dehydrated.

Also, remember that there were a variety of tools inserted thru each of those incisions. Could be soreness from those - the tools would have gone in different directions from the actual incision to allow the dr access to see and perform the surgery.

You might try an ice pack to see if that helps; 20 minutes at a time.

Hope you feel better soon! The first few days are the worst!
