I had pain for about a week or two on and off but the worst pain was probably up until day 3. As for getting out of bed, I still live at home so I had to get my mum or sister to help me out of bed lol - Hence why my back was killing me for a week still after surgery as I couldn't move when I sleeped lol. I hope the pain gets better for you. As for the fluids part. I lived on milk, water, apple juice and sustagen just to get extra vitamins and minerals in. You could also try like icy pole things that are low in sugar. Everyones says they have to be low fat and low sugar but you aren't getting nutritious in at the moment so the sugar will definitely help.
