Shethinksthin 36 Posted March 11, 2013 So had my surgery march 6 i was in horrendous pain it was intolerable! I am now 5 days post op everyone says it get better by the 7th or 8th day but I'm like this is depressing! I am walking like a robot. I got staples in on my stomach which hurt so I'm afraid it's going to hurt coming out! I'm afraid to sleep I got so many fears that I need reassurance for! I go see my surgeon march 14 to see if my incisions are healed well enough where he can remove the staples!! Yay and na! Yay cause I wouldn't have to worry about it. And na cause I need honest opinions do it hurt getting them removed! Cause I'm a wimp can't take much more pain forreal! My three year old wants me to hold him and I can't breaks my heart but yes I've made it. Just need advice please! 1 kmarcelle reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BBdoodle 483 Posted March 11, 2013 Hang in there... it does get better. Everyone handles surgery differently. I too am a big baby when it comes to pain, I cannot tolerate pain what so ever. I did very well on the post op healing, I did not have staples or sutures I just had the steri-strips to hold the incisions closed. My sister had the staples and she said they were very uncomfortable and they did hurt when they were removed. The only advise I can give you is get up and move around, that will eliminate the very paiful gas and the quicker you get up and back to your routine the quicker you heal. Take your pain meds as directed and move around. Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
