Stalls are your body's way of telling you not to get too cocky.

I really am not in much pain in day 5 post-op.
My my surgey was at 9pm on Wednesday and I went home at 11am on Thursday. I took my pain meds at home for the first three days not necessarily because I was in pain but as a precaution. On the evening of day three I realized I hadn't taken my last dosage and was just fine so decided to stop the pain meds altogether.
Now i now I just have mild discomfort but that's understandable considering I have 5 holes in my abdomen 😄
Best of luck with your procedure!
