Post-Laparoscopy

The next few days after the surgery all the bruises came out. At first I thought that the incision wounds were bleeding as my stomach had so many dark red/maroon areas. Eventually  in the course of the next few days my stomach was all colours of the rainbow. The suspect area(s) found during the surgery turned out to be benign.....great relief. Initially my stomach was a bit bloated and tender but I managed on paracetamol only for the pain. I was given co-codamol tablets when discharged but they were quite large and I doubted whether I could swallow them so left them alone. After a couple of weeks the stomach was more or less back to normal.
