Thanks MissSax. I'm actually surprised how good I feel. The first 2 days were very sore in the abdomen, but it's getting better quickly now. Most of my pain is where the port is, which seems common. My surgeon says he stitched the port down onto the abdominal muscles to keep it from flipping or moving, and I can definitely feel that those muscles are sore. I'm able to tolerate the protein shakes fine, and getting several walks a day on the treadmill. I have he whole week off from work, and I'm already feeling a little stir-crazy. Good luck on the 17th, I hope all goes smoothly for you! Be sure to walk asap and use the pain meds they offer you.
