  15. Im 11days post-op. Right now I was drinking water and choked. The middle of my stomach I think above an incision had a STRIKING BUT I MEAN STRIKING HURTFULL PAIN, which went away when i was done choking. Im scared i pulled something. Ive been so careful not to mess with my incision or upset my new sleeve. Is it possible we can tear our new sleeve line 1week out? Has anyone experienced this type of thing before? Maybe Im freaking out for nothing? Please any advice would make me feel better : /
