Re: my first surgery.....

Hi. My suggestion would be to take it easy for those few weeks after the surgery. And even if you feel bad after the surgery...WALK!! Walking helps the gas go away!! I also had my appendix taken out along with having endo removed, so it was a little longer of a recovery period for me. But I had the gas and bloated feeling for 4 weeks. I should have gotten up and walked a little more. One thing that I did learn after the surgery while in recovery is that they tend to give you a lot of medicine for nausea. All of that kept making me fall asleep and feel even worse!! If you have a problem with getting sick from anthesia make sure to discuss that with the doctor first. The next lap I have I'm going to ask for no nausea medicine. I stayed in the hospital an extra 4 hours b/c they kept giving me medicine!!

Hope things go well for you!! Good luck!
