Not feeling too well,stomach spasms hv kept me not eating my soft food and liquid intake,even hurts to tk my medicine for the pain,right side hurts the worse. Walking as much as tolerated. Finally past gas today,but no bm yet,may need to tk the muirlax tonite. I feel like Iv been ran over by dump truck.

I just had my surgery yesterday and I know your pain. Have you tried drinking warm Water or broth? It feel much better than cold fluids. I hope that the pain gets better as the days go on... I hear a lot of people saying that. Feel better!!

I felt like this last night and it was Gas. Get yourself some peppermint teabags and drink that, its amazing how that gets rid of the gas, today i feel great with most of my gas gone, also your muscle relaxers are your bestfriend when feeling rough, they mellow you out
