wey2bz 0 Posted January 20, 2008 Surgery was surprisingly not bad. On a scale fo 1 to 10 my pain was a about 3. I wore loose clothes and no jewlery of any sort to the hospital. I was only in recovery 2 hours after surgery and then was sent home. Yesterday (4 days post op) was my worst (and only bad) day so far. I had dry heaves and gas pains from the surgery. I used Gas-X and a heating pad to help releive the gas pain. This morning I feel like a new woman ... hoping the gas pains are finally gone for good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
