3 days home

I am home 3 days now and feel amazingly good. This site is teaching me that even though you feel good... don't push it! your still healing inside. I see that others had packing? I have a call into my doctor to see if I had that...only because the nurse took out my catheter and when the doctor came in she said oh everything is out already?? and I know only the catheter came out.
What is frustrating is the swollen tummy...by the evening I look huge! when does that go away? Can I walk on a treadmill?

Re: 3 days home

Good to hear you're doing well! Definitely take it easy and remember you're still healing inside.

As far as I know, most women don't have packing, but it depends on your surgery. I know I didn't have any.

My abdomen was really swollen for about 10 days, but started going down after that.

At three days, you probably should only do a little walking around the house. I've read that if you do use a treadmill, you should have it set flat (no incline), but it's probably best to wait a while to use the treadmill.
