Back Pain!

[ElleGene 0]

Hi! Hope all of you are doing well! I am one week post op and have had terrible back pain. My pain meds make me tired so I stay away from it during the day. Is this normal? I feel that my stomach is feeling tight sometimes, hurts to stretch feeling. Also, any pureed favorites? I can't get used to grilled chicken "soup". Thank you!

You should see your doctor about your back pain. I had a herniated disc after surgery. Taking you meds helps you relax and heal. Only take them at night if you must. Have you tried puréed tuna, salmon, or shrimp with a little lit mayo?

Yes see your doctor. Maybe you have a urinary tract infection from the catheter. Low back pain?
