Help I look 5 months pregnant!

0 Recommendations

I had a leep cone biopsy 10 days ago, and I am so bloated it seems ridiculous. I am wondering if many of you out there have experienced bloating to this degree as well? I had this procedure done in 2003 as well and I don't seem to recall this. When I first noticed it a couple hours after I got home, I thought some bloating I am sure must be normal. I mean I could here that gross vacuum machine the whole time none of this is very natural even if it is necessary. Anyway again it just seems excessive and I feel like I would remember this. I think I will call the nurse at the hospital in the morning regardless of the fact that I have an appt. this Thursday. But again, really I look ridiculous! I am 5'1" always about 105, when I went to my 3-year-olds Halloween party on Friday I had to wear lounge pants. I just don't understand why you would bloat up this bad and it doesn't seem to be getting any better either.

I would call your Dr. and ask if that is normal and if there is anything you can do to help the bloating go down. I was bloated to for a couple of months, but not to that degree. I just figured they were in there messing around with my body and so it was just healing and out of whack. Let us know how you make out and I hope it has an easy solution for you.
