Pain after op!

[Mewesy]

Hi, I'm wondering if anyone can just shed a bit of light!

I had a laposcapy on 30th March where I had endo removered, I was feeling ok and stopped taking the pain killers on the 3rd April, a day or two later, I started feeling a bit strange (cold, hot flushes, faint, lathargic and unable to sleep) which I have put down to the after affects the tramadol I am no longer taking but since 2am this morning I am in pain, again! Could it just be the after affects of the op? Or something else! Have I tried to run b4 I can walk (as the saying goes). Just when I thought I could get back to work and get back to normal, I don't want to take the tramadol as I feel I will have to start the hole process of coming of them and suffering the side effects.

Hi Hun. I know exactly how you are feeling right in going through similar symptoms having had my lap on the 31st March. It's the Anaesthetic wearing off as well as the tramadol. We have to get ourselves a break and let our bodies settle down after major surgery. I would give your doctor a call for done advice also. Take care. Julie. Xx

You could try a different type of painkiller - that wouldn't make you feel poorly coming off it. Ask your doctor.
