Asked By:Belinda_Tucson in Tucson, AZ

My recovery has been quite easy but two days ago, I was feeling so good that I believe I may have over done it with running errands, shopping, etc. I also had a 24 hour stomach bug that caused me to vomit over the toilet (which hurt!). Now, I feel super swollen , even in the morning and I feel like I am back to day 4! Could I have done damage? I am most concerned because the past two mornings, I am swollen even in the morning!
