If this is a flare or something wrong already, I don't know what the hell I'm gonna do!!!!!! Did anyone else have some pain after re section, should I just not be worried at all?

It's dull and achy pain on right side, mid quadrant. Also if you read my most recent post I've had those horrible and lengthy headaches, and my stomach has been making a lot of noise. It was quiet for a while after surgery but now it's doing it again!

Thinking about texting my GI asking for a CT order, I see him next week.

I dunno what to do, this is making me a bit paranoid every time I get that dull pain. I just fear the pain is going to get as severe as it was. That was most horrible thing ever.
 
What I have been told and what I've experienced is that after a resection/removal or any intestinal surgery is it takes about a year or so for your organs to settle and for your nerves to readjust themself. I would get achy dull pains, gassy bloated feelings for about a year after surgeries.
You just have to listen to your body. If the pain gets a lot worse or you develop a fever then you should contact your doctor asap. But if it's just a dull pain and you can handle it I would just wait till next week when you see your doctor and talk to them about it in more detail.
Good luck to you.
