Flmomof2 9 Posted April 17, 2013 Hi everyone! I had my surgery on 4/15 & just waiting for my family to come get me. Day 1 was hard - some pain, hard to move & breathe without pain. I couldn't get up to walk because I was so dizzy & nauseous. Day 2 big improvement. Still some pain but not too bad. Day 3- started running a fever got up to 100.4. The hospital wasn't going to release me unless my temp came down. It's still up a little but I made sure it was low enough to let me leave. The only pain I have is when I try to roll over or bend down. So far it's not so bad today. I hope everyone is doing well!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cherry 71 Posted April 18, 2013 Reading all your updates ...... So my experience has been great! Then again, my surgery was only 13 hrs ago As I've mentioned, I have dreadful anesthesia issues. This time wasn't horrible but not perfect. I was nauseous the entire time after surgery & was given a lot of meds. The scratch down my throat is 10x worse than my surgery lol I actually began sipping Water pretty quickly just to ease my throat. Then there was the awful pain on my shoulders. Felt like a horse kicked me. So I was peeing & I noticed blood on my gown. Took me 2 hrs to figure it out; I had some drainage from an incision. Thing is, I have NO pain from surgery & forgot I had incisions!!! No problems really. I HATE the nebulizer in my nose though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrsLulu 69 Posted April 19, 2013 How is everyone doing? Made it through the first 4 days, but still healing. I can say the left side cut hurts pretty bad still, and it is right where my pants hit. Ugh! It feels okay to walk around as long as I am holding my left side. I wish I had a wrap around thing that would make me not have to hold my tummy. Anyone else having that problem?

MrsLulu 69 Posted April 19, 2013 Not feeling nauseous or anything just really hurting on the left. I did notice that I might have eaten too much when I was eating some cream of chicken Soup earlier. Got an uncomfortable feeling in my chest and upper abdomen but not until 10 minutes later. I was really scared of dumping too but I didn't, thank God!
