You just had major surgery. Yes, things hurt. Like @@ivarae said, do some walking (although it is hard when you're hurting) and take your pain meds. Each day should improve for you. Give it a couple weeks and you should feel much better. I'd say the pain should diminish this weekend.

I hope your feeling better each day. I have been wondering about the pain after the sleeve procedure. I'm expecting pain since its surgery but curious about where the pain is coming from? Is it more abdominal, similar to a laparoscopic hysterectomy or do you actually feel the pain of your stomach being cut?

Maybe both? Not sure why I'm so focussed on this since I have a pretty good pain tolerance, I guess it's just the unknown.

It's definitely different for everyone. I was sleeved on Monday and I feel great. I was driving and took my kids to the dentist (20 minutes away) on Wednesday. Yesterday I spent 4+ hours at a party. I never really had pain, just sore ab/stomach muscles. I have never felt any incision pain. Now at 6 days post-op I feel almost completely normal, there's just very slight discomfort when I get up from the couch due to using those muscles that still aren't 100%.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
