So I just have to complain for a moment! I was starting to feel better with this whole surgery thing, and then last night I woke up at 1:00 in the morning because I could hear Karson and I have this severe pain in my stomach below my ribs, it felt like someone had punched me in the gut, and I couldn't breathe...it hurt a lot! I felt like I needed to throw up and I couldn't. I felt like I had all of this air inside of me that couldn't go anywhere and it was a lot of pressure! Ugh! I was up until 2:00 in the morning and somehow managed to go back to bed, because I took some nausea medication that makes you tired, then Karson woke up again at 3:00 and I was up with him until 4:00. He was up again at 5:00 and I was up at 6:30 to get ready for work, I should have been up at 6:00 but I just couldn't get out of bed!
So I called the Dr. today and told them of my pain and they said it is normal to feel that way for a couple of weeks after surgery, to just drink plenty of water and eat lots of fiber, to get my digestive system back on track, but seriously every time I get up or move, it feels like I got the wind knocked out of me, it is the most annoying feeling and it just started up last night! So I am at work dealing with it, with no pain meds! Lovely. I am pretty bitter about it right now, because I really feel horrible, so that is my little rant for the moment!

Sorry to hear you are in pain. Hopefully you can get back to normal soon. Good luck!
How are you feeling now? I remember having weird "gas" pains after my surgery for a while. They put so much air in there during the surgery and it can't all get out, so it has to kind of absorb in your body and that can take a while.
