I'm sure you know the everyone is different! However, I never really had much pain as I did soreness. I use to get stiff ( still not as much now) if I lay or seat in the same position too long. When I was in the recovery at the hospital my pain was a 6 and it was down hill from then. When I was d/c my pain was like a 4 and by day 4 or 5 was I two and now 0. I am 10 days out and make over 10,000 steps twice this week and avg. about 6,000 the other days. I do everything lift, dance, walk, sometime forgetting I just had surgery. Give yourself time and do as much as you can. listen to your body but I believe the more you move the less you feel and the faster you heal!!! Wishing you a speedy recovery.

When does the pain start easy up?


It does...little by little, everyday gets better! The more active you are, the faster you will feel better. Just a short walk 3 times a day will help you tremendously! Then when you start soft foods, take a short walk after each "meal", that helps a ton too! Good luck!

I found at about 6 days, I'd turned a corner, but everybody heals so differently. It was like it went from pain to only hurt/discomfort. Every day got easier.

Once discomfort started I used a heating pad and never took my brace off. It gave me great relief and I felt 100 percent better about a week after surgery.

I had my surgery yesterday and the gas pain is awful ... I hope it eases up soon, the gas x strips aren't helping either [emoji17]

Bella, walking helped me the most with gas pains. Move when you can...omg, I burp so much when I'm walking, but it felt so much better!

      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.
