So the question was, how are you feeling, Peg?

Sympathies.

I've not been lucky (!) enough to have keyhole surgery, but when they took my appendix out, they couldn't do it that way because it was emergency surgery. And my tummy took in a lot of gas to do it. I didn't do the walking thing after my surgery because the CP I was born with meant I was to disoriented to walk far for about ten days after the surgery. And it took two weeks to begin to heal.

So just be patient with your body. If you can walk, well, it might help shift the gas out of you. And I feel your pain. Let everyone around you love you and take care of you. I'm thinking of you.

Don't be macho about the pain meds, okay? Take them on schedule. Your body will heal faster if it's not also trying to cope with extra pain.

Awww, man. What do you have? Do you have Vicodin? Because vike is pretty damn good.

[pegkerr.livejournal.com]

Yep, Vicodin. Unfortunately, it's only taking off the edge.

However, it's just about time for me to take another dose.

Sorry to hear that.

And "ow" at night is somehow so much worse. :( I hope your family is taking good care of you. *hugs gently*

[sophie-spence.livejournal.com]

Much sympathy and best wishes.

Sorry you're sore! Glad you're back and able (at least) to post!

[papersky.livejournal.com]

Oh, you poor thing.

I do hope you feel better soon!

I hope you feel better soon.
Can you do some kind of compress? Heat maybe for the gas? Or is that a no no?

Pain sucks. Painkillers are good. Hope the pain and discomfort lessens as quickly as it reasonably can (if not quicker!).

many virtual hugs....

Just think of all the OWs you will be spared as a result of enduring these OWs. ;-) No more gallstones! Huzzah! And HOOT!

Aw, honey... *hugs* Take the pain pills *before* you need them. It's far easier to prevent pain from getting worse than it is to get it under control. If they make you nauseous, take them with food.
