Re: Bruising after Laparoscopy- Normal??Pain Relief

Hi ladies - I'm out of hospital and have been managing on Panadol every 6
hours. Works for me. And I had more than laparoscopy, had laparotomy and
32 staples. Taking it easy. Do feel zonked out and fatigued. I'm
lactating a bit and doctor said my pituary gland is releasing prolactin?
(don't know if I've got this right) which is relaxing me heaps. Feel quite
relaxed.
Regards,
Annette Katona
