Hi! I experienced post EC recovery this way. After the procedure my nurse asked me how I was feeling. I told her I had bad pain in both of my ovaries. I was feeling nauseous as well so she gave me an injection to make me less nauseous. We slowly walked back to the recovery room. My husband had pain medicine for me which was a hydrocodone 5 ml. Once I was feeling confident that I could walk, my husband helped me to the car. The ride home was hard because all the bumps really bothered me. The worst though was when I became nauseous and I threw up on the way home. :( This probably wouldn't have happened if I took the anti nausea medicine like was prescribed but I didn't have it on me so I took it afterwards.

All that made me want my bed badly. I was very sore. The pain meds didn't sink in, however I was able to fall asleep. When I woke up I was able to eat part of a protein shake and take my pain medicine. I was getting better...

I even went for a walk and continued drinking lots of water .went to bed at my usual time and woke up feeling better today.thanks for sharing .xx
