I had my surgery June 21, and I'm new here!



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery June 21. My surgeon, Dr. Chapman, had me complete 2 weeks on a liquid diet. I lost 19 lbs. the surgery and recovery was much harder than I thought. I had 3 c-sections, so I assumed this would be a piece of cake, being as it was laparoscopic. I was wrong. The nausea was awful. I spent 2 nights in the hospital then came home. The doctor has me on Water and Protein Shakes for two weeks. I am going to wait until my 2 week post op appointment to get weighed. The worse thing now is pain in my large incision of the left side of my stomach.

It's the worst and have your dr order you celebrex , it was a lifesaver with the pain...because they did so much work in that one area is why you have so much pain, I had 4 c sections and never felt that amount of pain, feel better
