@@nicolesix I don't think it's normal to be in THAT much pain. I am what doctors might refer to as a "big baby" and I wasn't in anything near that amount of pain. Gas pain was an issue in the first day or two, but it was pretty tolerable. Certainly not excruciating and it didn't prevent me from being able to at least walk around a little or march in place. Have you talked to your surgeon about the extent of the pain you are in?

Thanks Sleeksleever, I've never had surgery either. Nicole's experience makes me nervous! I'm praying for you Nicole, hopefully soon your pain will subside.

I did speak to my doctor who let me take more pain meds. I guess I am a big whimp with this surgery and I've had two stomach surgeries in the past. The pain is just a lot for me. I'm trying to stay strong and remember that this pain is fleeting. I wish before surgery I would have seen a post like mine. It feels like people only post how amazing they feel and I definitely not like that. So here is the other side of the story for those about to have it. I wouldn't say that I wouldn't do it again but be ready to be on your butt in pain.
