Well since it's only been a week & 1/2 you are just recoving. When they do surgery they actually put a gas in you so it expands your abd. area and they can see. They try to sqeeze this stuff all out but it's impossible so they always aleave a little behind. It is actually pretty painful stuff, causes cramps backaches, bloating, shoulders to ache. The best way to get it out is to walk but it will take a few weeks. It took my body three weeks to get it all out then finally some relief. You know it's starting to come out when your shoulders start to ache becuase of the pressure, so walk a lot if possible.
