I was released from the hospital yesterday.  I'm able to walk around, but getting up is a bit hard.  My stomach is super bloated and feel lots of pain where the incisions are.  Plus, I feel like all these bubbles are popping inside.  Is this normal?????????

Bloating is from all the IV fluids.popping and bubbles is gas.Yes it's all normal did the doctor give you prescritions to take?

I got liquid vicadin and pills to take for drowsiness.  I've been taking the vicadin and that's been making me sleep.  Hope this goes away soon.

You need your rest you need all the rest you can possible get right now besides getting your protein in and also walking. After about 4 or5 days you mau feel better and may not need to use the vicoden.But seriously get your rest take your meds and do what needs to be done please.
