valerie805 4 Posted February 21, 2013 I had my surgery this morning. I'm in so much pain. Very weak and feel like I was hit by Mack truck over and over. When will I feel better? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
No game 14,437 Posted February 21, 2013 It takes a good five days or so to feel back to semi normal.. Are you in the hospital still? Are you walking? Even if you don't feel like it, It really helps. Most of us felt horrible the first couple of days and thought about "what have I done" but I promise it will get better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Decembersleever 154 Posted February 22, 2013 Laura is right. It DOES get better and walking is the key. Stay strong! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kellimcc 11 Posted February 22, 2013 I had my 4 wk post pop today, it the 1st week I can say I was pain free. It takes a full week for the dry mouth, gas pains and exhaustion to subside. Maybe another full week until no more muscle pain in the abdomen. Third week you'll start feeling better, but will still have low energy. Just focus on managing through the pain for today/tonight. Get up and walk the halls! You have to move to get the gas out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
