Pain and sweling, had to get of the percocet and muscle relaxer my stomach has been so upset as soon as i stopped taking them i been doing better, tylenol is the only thing thats working rte now.
I stated drinking peppermint tea and bloating has gone down thank god. I havent been able to use the bathroom ughhh. Been getting up to walk around which helps feeling lots of pressure. uncomfy to sleep in same position im more of a stomach sleeper so its been ruff im so tired that i just fall asleep but not for long before im up in pain again. How much longer for this pain? My bk is already hurting.

I'm asking the same question.. I'm confused with how far along you are..im post op day 11 and Have back pain chest pain and now my breasts are coming and going burning feeljng.. Just keep icing and keep trying to relax after the first 7 days I stopped being elevated and sleeping on my back but if your before seven days.. You have to sleep on your back put pillows under your arms propping you up take Tylenol pm instead at night helps a little and if you were given muscle relaxers take those at night they help so much
