Wind pain

[janef 1]

I had my surgery yesterday 36 hours and counting. I have no shoulder pain but the abdominal wind pain is severe. Taking oxy codeine and paracetamol which helps but you certainly know when it wears off. My biggest issue is that I take a lot of medication for a pre existing medical condition and an having to dissolve crushed medication in Water which then leaves me little room for liquid diet, especially Protein sources. Any suggestions welcomed. I am from Australia so drug names may be different. Despite all the pain I am excited and optimistic about the next phase

Hello -

Sorry I can't offer much help. Hope you are feeling better by today. I had surgery yesterday and feel a lot of gas pain just under my sternum. I keep walking and taking gas strips. Hopefully it will pass soon. Good luck!

Thanks so much. Much improved now almost 2 weeks on. Back at work and lost 8 lb since surgery. Hope things are going well for you
