Hi Ladies

16 days post op

Ive had a bit of an upset tum for a couple of days which caused very loose stool with cramping  and my bum today feels like it has something rammed in there so very uncomfortble to sit or even lie on my back . i have a cough/cold with a need to bring up phlem which is making my insides at the front sore and achy and also the discharge seems to be a slight greenish colour as opposed to brownish, does this mean infection?

I have recurring depression and had meds changed before my op so have been very up and down whilst waiting for the 4-6 weeks that is needed for the anti depressants to work properly

I think i am probably over analysing my aches and pains but cant put away how horribly ill i feel these last few days :-(

sorry for moaning on but needed to speak it out loud!

    Aw, so sorry to hear...perhaps a call to your doc might help if things are that uncomfortable. I know I went through "stages" of healing, one day not so bad and the next, pains in places I didn't know existed! Please take care of yourself and don't hesitate to ask your doc for help. Let us know how things go...

      Poor you x now get some peace of mind with a check up. You know when you need to get advice and this sounds like the time. Then rest up. Your body is working on healing quite a few sites by the sounds of it, remember that x it takes so much out of you, and something that I don't think people even consider in these busy times.

    So glad to hear you are checking this out - although I imagine the examination will be uncomfortable. Maybe take some pain relief before going in? Please let us know - I am rooting for you.

    Aww poor you, it sounds really uncomfortable. I agree I think you need to get checked out to be on the safe side. I only had brown discharge for a very short time. now it just seems a bit on the whiter side (I'm 4.5 weeks post op).

    I too have suffered with depression (familiy issues with our autistic son) and it's tough dealing with other things too. I think when you are trying to rest but you have too much time to think, it's so hard. Saying that I think the aches and pains after this op are very real and nobody tells you of this before. Hope you get on ok, let us know how things go. Take care

    Mine didn't use the speculum darling, just a swab, and it was painless. I was only 2 weeks post op too and felt like i was sitting on broken glass. I had another one to check it had cleared. No pain.The meds will clear up your infection, (if thats what it is) and i can help you with tips for great gut health to support your complex healing xx
