I'm sorry you feel so yuck Sarah. I don't see how much weight you have to lose from your details but I felt pretty horrendous after mine which I put down to having 16stone to lose.
I was just really unfit and my poor body in such a bad way that it took me a whole week of lots of painkillers and feeling awful before I even got out of bed much.
I think just keep up the painkillers and wind relief and don't be scared to call your team for advice and reassurance as well.
This will pass and you will be feeling much better soon I'm sure.
It's very easy to expect a quick recovery as we always compare ourselves to others , especially if they say they were quick to feel better... you will get over it at the rate that applies to you..but stay in touch with your team to be on the safe side.

OK love , well you keep up the pain meds and wind stuff and take each day as it comes for now x Try and distract yourself a bit with something you enjoy that's relaxing, for me it's gaming or a good movie.
Also get plenty of sleep if you are able to and light pottering about x

Aww Bless Sarah, we are thinking of you it's very early days, a few days makes a huge difference.

Rest and take it easy Angel and keep in touch.

I sipped peppermint tea for the wind...

Hi Sarah - Afraid some pain is to be expected after surgery; and it can vary from person to person. I felt I had been kicked in the stomach by a horse for a couple of days, but it will get better each day! Hope it passes before too long hun x

Sometimes if you move about gently at home; it can help relieve the wind pain (lets the gas escape) and as long as you listen to your body and not overdo things; I`m sure you will be fine.

Plenty of rest, a gentle little walk about and keep sip sip sipping and you will soon be on the road to recovery.

And if you need painkillers, take them thats what they`re for.



Best wishes for a speedy recovery x



Love Kat x
