Sleeping on my back was ok for about the first 5 days. The pain meds and muscle relaxer helps to fall asleep, but now... Day 7, I'm pretty much over it. I did lay on my side to see how it felt and it was painful. So, on my back I will stay. I did forget to mention in my post, that the coughing I did for two days was extremely painful. So, anything you can do to prepare for that is the best advice I can give.

How are you feeling? Everyday gets better and better. Day 7 for us. I cant believe it has been a week already. I just had my drain removed yesterday and that feels sooooo much better. I hope all is well with your healing! Please keep me posted!
