loobylou238 43 Posted September 22, 2013 Had my surgery 18 September. Everything went well although I seemed to spend a long time in the recovery room. Thursday was a day from hell. Couldn't get a needle in to my veins correctly with the result I didn't get enough pain relief. Finally sorted out Thursday afternoon. Haven't really suffered too much from the gas as have been in and out of my bed as I have been unable to sleep. Friday morning went for my barium meal and that was ok. Discharged back to my hotel. Nurse came to hotel on Saturday morning, gave me my shot, checked my wounds and I was free to go. Flew back to Scotland yesterday afternoon, had 5 tablespoons of Soup and finally slept in my own bed. Got up this morning and I'm feeling on top of the world. Have put a washing on and I'm sipping Water. Hope you're feeling better Aggie 1234. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aggie1234 7 Posted September 22, 2013 Hi looby Lou. Glad to hear your feeling better. I'm feeling worse than yesterday. Back pain is out of this world. Never suffered so much. I'm wondering if it's gas or it really is back pain or is it because I've not moved around alot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sanks51 214 Posted September 22, 2013 Hi looby Lou. Glad to hear your feeling better. I'm feeling worse than yesterday. Back pain is out of this world. Never suffered so much. I'm wondering if it's gas or it really is back pain or is it because I've not moved around alot Take your pain killers if you have.. I was like a zombie for nearly two weeks.. I had so much pain heaving my large body around that I couldn't say for sure if I experienced back pain!! That gas is not a great feeling, I felt it mostly near my shoulders, but it could be transferred to your back.. Also watch kidneys hope you feel better, don't let the pain get you down!! Rest, relax, recouperate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
