[tstevens28 9]

2 weeks post op tomorrow- been feeling great- until today. Horrible pain in my stomach- ended up in ER- and DR said I overdid it and maybe popped a few interal stitches! Anybody do this? How long until you felt better?? Can't move!!!

What the heck is that?? I'm ok if I stay still- but the second I try to bend- stand or walk.. Ugh!! Scary!!

they take an xray. u might have pneumonia. thats what i had. it can happen after major surgery. request an xray of ur chest and a cat scan.

It's not in my chest- it's at my waist- like 2-3 inches right of my belly button..

I am so sorry!! Please keep us updated on your status? What kind of physical activity have you been doing?

I hope it's nothing serious.

I've been walking a lot- but I also have a toddler- and I have probably picked him up/helped him up more than I should.. I also went back to work a week after discharged from hospital.. How long did you all go back after surgery???

i had pain in my waist too. get an xray just to be sure. there was an air pocket near my stomach and it caused pain. i had to get antibiotics thru an iv for 2 weeks. got sent home with it

i didnt start working again til i was 6 weeks post op. the first month was hell. i spent 75% of it in the hospital with pneumonia. it can deff happen after major surgery.
