Hey Hun, I can completely relate to you! I had my operation on Monday just gone (15th). The Monday and Tuesday I was in so much pain, threw up six times on Monday, couldn’t do anything to make myself feel better.
I was sent home with paracetamol, ibruprofen and codiene. I called the hospital and they said to take more of the codiene tablets which I was worried would make me more sick but I havent been sick since the Monday as I’ve ensured I’ve had meals and ate enough with my tablets.
Day 3 was a big turning point I felt a million times better and every day since has been better. I would say make sure you’re eating well and taking all of your tablets, call the hospital to ask if they can change your prescription to a higher painkiller and if not if you can up your intake.
Today I’m day 5 and I’m feeling great, I took my dog for a walk and can lift my arms and do everything for myself.
Feel free to message me if you need any advise as I’ve gone through it and feel loads better now!
Holly xx
