Day 1. So yesterday was the big day surgery was at 7:00 &was suppose to last 3hrs but after opening me up ended having a hernia which he fixed. Recovery didnt go as well bevause I was nausead and keep threwing up which belibe me hurt lik hell. Wat evr u do dnt throw up or cough itd painful. So finally I was table and my husband took me to the recovery house. Nurses said my walking was gud and had a hard time going pee and wiping myself. I have one drain in only which was feeling fast. Took a nap woke up way better. Walking seemed easy seeing that I was peeing evry 10 min. The drains barely feeln up so thats a great sign haven a hard time sleeping but over all doing well rig
ht now. Lets see what today has in store since I will be goin home.

Well feel the same as yesterday really sore. I feel real gassy today I wonder wat i can take to get rid of that. Trying to rest as much possible but my body getting so sore from laying down. Still tryin to eat simply things that are easy to swallow cuz my throat still hurting from surgery. Really cant see my stomach but from what I can see,it is flat but swollen. Still taking my meds evry 4 hrs to elimanate pain. Tuesday go to ps office so im sure I will see my stomach.
