Can barely walk or move after liposuction - 1 day post-op.

Kiaroxilante
I had lipo on 10 areas - inner/outer thighs, love handles and upper/lower yesterday. The doctor used local anesthesia (max) and I could still feel intense pain during the entire process. He didn't finish my stomach because of intense pain. My legs are so sore I can't even walk or get out of bed, and can't find a comfortable position to lie in. I've been vomiting a lot too. Is this normal? I have a trip in ten days and prior the doctor told me I would be healed in time but now I'm not so sure.
