terry r 0 Posted April 1, 2007 Just had my surgery on the 3/29/2007. Did anyone have post op swelling that made your stomach look and feel larger than prior to surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Iluvharleys 15 Posted April 1, 2007 Yup! I actually gained 8 pounds from all the IV's junk they gave me. Don't worry it will go down in a few days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
faithmd 14 Posted April 1, 2007 I have not yet had surgery, but they also pump your abdominal cavity full of gas so that they are able to visualize what they are doing in there. Did this not get explained to you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
