Dr. said if I hadn't had a BM in 2 days to get laxatives...SO's on his way back from the pharmacy, not sure what he got.

I would recommend something like Miralax. Pretty good stuff. Even helps my chiweenie go potty. :-)

I can't believe how bad you seem to be hurting. Maybe they did a bigger incision on you or something? I hope you feel better soon. And if I were you, I would take 3 Benedryl and call someone in the morning. :p

Thanks BL - SO got me some nyquil and I was able to nap.

There are 2 incisions, one in/under the belly button, and one about 5 inches lower - did you have two?

I'm also still bloated w/ the gas and look slightly pregnant - awwwwe :)

They did a vag-assisted lap so I only had one incision. With my hysterectomy, they were nice enough to give me 3 scars. But, they are not even noticeable now.


As for the Mexican food? NO. You get gas right now? OUCH. It probably wouldn't be a bad idea to get some gas pills to help you get some of that air out of your belly. It is going to take some time, because it is more in your belly than gas is. I started passing it as soon as I left the hospital, even though it hurt like an SOB, but I felt SOOOOO much better when it was about 3/4 of the way gone that night.

It's started passing SOME - I've been taking tums and Maalox (sp?).

But still no bowel movements!

I'm assuming the incisions were one for the laparoscopy, one for the hysteroscopy? I don't know.

JL, is there any food that will act naturally for you? In my case, it is licorce (the real stuff).

Hope you feel better.

Spinner, could they have used "gas" in her stomach - the reason for the bloated feeling?

Thanks Buckeye - not really...I have IBS, usually it's never an issue to "go."

They did fill my stomach with gas, that's why it's so bloated.
