kdgaines 41 Posted June 25, 2013 I hadn't thought about this… I have a 1.5 hour drive home… maybe I'll sit in the back of the van and just lay down….. Oh I only had 15-20 mins of riding. Good luck! But yes a pillow will help. I just couldn't put the seatbelt around me without it pressin an locking up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
horseperson 2 Posted June 25, 2013 I was very lucky, brought a pillow with but didn't need it at all. Had no pain and slept the 1 and 1/2 hr ride home. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bjroberts417 102 Posted June 25, 2013 Also I timed my pain meds so they kicked in before I got in the car. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoColeFleet 246 Posted June 26, 2013 Funny enough but my nut said to use flintstones complete chewable twice a day. Mines said not to use children's vitamins...so different. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoColeFleet 246 Posted June 26, 2013 Question: Traveling home. how did you use a seat belt. My stomach is sore? I used a pillow and thankfully I did, because once I got in my communit, there are millions of speed bumps, lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

horseperson 2 Posted June 26, 2013 Is anyone having pains in the left side??? My side is hurting and feels like its in a constant cramp. My doctor said they are most likely gas pains and to walk to help alleviate the pain. Also I'm supposed to take milk of mag tomorrow to help get things moving.

msraza1982 24 Posted June 26, 2013 Is anyone having pains in the left side??? My side is hurting and feels like its in a constant cramp. I have it too... guess gas sounds right but it sure is uncomfortable Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kdgaines 41 Posted June 26, 2013 They said walking would help but it's almost to painful to walk. When I stand up I feel like my stomach is falling off And I have to hold it. I sure hope it goes away soon. It is very uncomfortable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
