4the day after LB

Hello all. I am on my 4th day afterwards. I have to admit I am still very sore on the big incision. I feel pretty good, not very hungry at all. Has anyone else experienced sore pain after the surgery? For how long should it last? I am still very happy and optimistic. HOORAY!!!:thumbup:

Feeling sore isn't odd at all. I was tender for about 2 weeks on my larger incision. I'm 3 weeks banded & all the tenderness is gone. Everybody is different but after only 4 days I'd say your doing great. Welcome aboard on this incredible journey were all taking together.

Hi! I am 5 weeks post op and still have some discomfort at my port site (the big incision). I just saw the surgeon yesterday for follow up and he said it's because the port is stitched into muscle and tissue and that it will get better. I do call it discomfort - certainly not pain. Overall, I feel great!
