I'm recovering from my gallbladder removal surgery and I'm in pain. I'm not supposed to pick up things or anything like that, and moving quickly hurts really badly. And my friend who knows this, I know she knows this, because she was at the hospital with me for two freaking nights, and she just purposely made me jump by tickling my back. And then got upset that I snapped at her. It hurt of course I snapped at her - it her, and she knew that I'd jumped, and moving quickly hurt. I know she can be childish sometimes, and most of the time I can handle it but this is just too much right now. I hurt badly enough without her doing something like that.

I'm sorry that your friend was like that. My husband had his gallbladder and his appendix taken out at the same time and I know recovery is at least week if not more. My husband was every tender for at least a few months and we have a little girl so of course he would get hit now and then by her but she just doesn't understand because at the time she was only 8 months old.

Ouch! I couldn't imagine having them both taken out at the same time, I'm in so much pain from just having one of them taken out. And if it was a baby or small child I'd understand. The cat jumped on me this morning, and I didn't blow up - so when it comes to babies or animals who don't understand, I don't get mad, but she's old enough to know better, even if she acts like a teenager. But I've calmed down now and forgiven her of course, staying angry at someone is just going to keep me feeling bad, not them.

Not really it doesn't hurt any more then what you got done by it's self. Both where small insinuation so it's not like a big scar or anything. He has three tiny holes in abdominal. He was hurting pretty bad the day it was done and it was and in and one because of where we live they are able to do here since we have good technology. We try to each our daughter don't hit people period even though she was at the time 9 months old we wanted her to know that she hurt daddy even though she didn't to it was teaching her something. She is now going to be 16 months and I'm pregnant again so she tries to hit me on the stomach of course by accident I know that I don't get mad at her but I make it know its not nice to do cause she could hurt mommy and the baby. Well not really she couldn't because I now a little like that wouldn't do anything. I want her to be nice to her little brother. She is starting to understand that hitting and throwing things isn't nice. You are right your friend is old enough to know better. Yes being mad doesn't help it'll cause stress on the body which makes healing a lot longer then shorting. Working out little bit little helps with any healing.

I don't blame you for snapping at her. She should well understand that you are in pain and physical activities should be kept at a minimum. I think she was childish, not you. Are you okay though? No stitches were moved 'cause of the action? Hope everything is well. Have a great MyLot experience ahead!

They used glue on me, and it's all well and together still, thankfully. She felt really bad after she did it, she was trying to make me laugh and forgot about it, or so she said. She is slightly mentally disabled so I couldn't stay mad at her for long, but when I'm hurting my patience wears so thin.

I can't believe that someone would do that to someone who just had abdominal surgery! Of course you got upset and had every right to, I hope your friend apologized! I went through gallbladder surgery and suffered just as you did. Even though it was what is classified as bandaide surgery, it still is an invasion of your body and it freaking hurts! Be careful of what you eat. You're going to find that eating greasy foods can really be painful. At least it was and still is for me. I also had bouts of pancreatitis. Which is an inflammation of your pancreas and is very painful and it landed me in the hospital several times. Take care of yourself, which I know is going to be easy right now because you are in pain, but when the pain eases, still be very careful and allow yourself time to heal thoroughly.

I'm being very careful and avoiding foods that made me feel sick while the doctors and I was trying to figure out what was really going on which took two weeks, so I've been eating better, which is good for me, because I've been working on loosing weight for the last fourteen months or so, and I have lost 40 pounds, but have currently came to a stand still, which I think the change in my diet will help me get started back up again. And she did apologize, and I know she didn't really mean to do it. But when she was like "I'm sorry, I wasn't thinking." I was mean at first, like right after it happened and my answer was "That's the problem, C, you never think." But were okay now, but I told her I was going to slap the holy heck outta her if she ever did something like that again. I'm not a violent person by any means, but geeze quit abusing the sick person. lol I know they call it a band-aid surgery, but I wonder how many people on the committee that named it ever went through it? If they had I think they'd have given it a different name. lol

hi syramoon yes its re ally thoughtless of her and I am thinking she is a bit stuck on herself and thinks it cute to do silly thoughtless things like that. I had one so called friend like that and finally I realized she was her ony friend she was so stuck on herself and when she acted childish it was because she was childish,it was all about her b eing cute. Having gallbladder surgery now though is a snap usually. I am surprised you have that much pain I had only a small incision and i was in my seventies. but again you may not have had the small incison so called band aid surgery anyway your friend needs to check her Iq as you do not make people who have just had surgery jump at all.not smart not intelligent.

Wow, I can't believe she did that! There's a time and a place for playing tricks on a friend - but that was not the time nor place to do it. That was just in bad taste. I, too, hope she apologized to you!!

Is she a real friend of you, I doubt and suggest you to keep away from such irresponsible friend.
