2 days post op when will I be able to get out of bed by myself?



Recommended Posts

Hey all,

Got my surgery on Tuesday 9/27, was discharged yesterday. I'm waking, drinking, not in pain... only when I'm trying to get out of bed, it hurts so bad like I've spent 1000009 hour at the gym working on my abs when will this pain go away? Also can't sleep on my back anymore eeerrrr .

I am 3 days post op. I have to roll on my side in order to get up, otherwise I am good. Belly is a bit tender. Not even taking the pain meds anymore. I sleep on my side though. I hated sleeping on my back. It will get better.

It gets a little better every day. You should log roll to get out of bed and use your leg muscles.....

I had an arm lift 11 weeks ago tonight and was not allow to use them at all to get in and out of bed or even up from a chair. I wondered what the heck people do that have their arm lift, Tummy Tuck and breast lift all at the same time. They have to be crazy.

When I got home after surgery, I slept in my own bed. That was fine. But because I had a Water bed, trying to get up out of bed was a killer.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
