Sorry to hear that you feel so bad. I am starting to feel a little better. I think a lot of my pain last night was gas. I was a much better patient today and stayed on the couch instead of going out. Today I slept until 10, then slept on the couch until 3:30. Took two walks around the block, but that's it. I actually took a shower today, too. It's really cool what they can do these days. They painted this clear stuff over my incisions, and I can shower without covering them or anything. Which is really good because I'm not sure how I would have gotten my stomach into a plastic bag! Hope you feel better soon.
