“I
I feel bloated. Like I have a basketball inside me most of the time. And my skin feels like it’s going to pop open any minute around my belly. When I’m bloated like this where they went in on my belly button definately hurts, probably due to the stretching of the skin around the incision. the surgery was done through laparascope. When I cough, sneeze, even laugh at times the pain in my side under my rib is almost like a knife going through it. It’s above the incision, kind of between the one on the far right and upper right. Imagine it’s where the gallblader (gallbladder) was. I’ve only taken pain pills one night when I was at work because I don’t like how they make me feel. So basically, I just deal with the pain when it comes on. ”
