Does anyone know what they pump into you when they are doing a robotic laproscopic hysterectomy? I'm not really in much pain unless I touch or stretch one of the lapro holes. But my torso (above the belly button & below the breasts) is sticking out like I'm pregnant. I know I'm large but this is more than normal. I guess the gyno-onco can tell me tomorrow.

    Stage 1A-Grade2 no chemo/no rad needed
    Gyn-onco say torso swollen from gas.
    Everything checked out fine, no chemo, no rad needed.
    Thank you God!

    Wonderful news!
    Domina...such great news!! I am sooo happy for you. Such a huge load off your mind! So, now you need to take time to heal. The bad thing about robotic surgery is that you feel good and tend to over do....that is not good.

    Once you are recovered from the surgery, exercise and eat healthy! May you have a very long life ahead to enjoy....DANCE!!

    Big HUGS!! Karen
