I feel like it is muscle pain. It feels like it tightens up and almost feels like it is going to snap. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I have noticed that wearing spanks do help and I'm constantly holding my side to provide the support. The problem with my spanks is that it hurts putting them on and taking them off. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I haven't been taking anything for pain. I was taking hycet for my pain right after being discharged from the hospital on a Thursday and stopped taking it on Monday. After that I've taken nothing. I did take some this morning so I could go to a school carnival with my children and actually be able to walk around without wanting to cry. I have lifted a gallon of milk but that is all. I was told not to lift anything 10-15lbs. I will call the doctor on Monday to be seen. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

It is nice to know that I'm not alone. I don't have a fever and it isn't painful to touch any of the incisions. It is sore to touch a certain area that has hurt since surgery. I figure it is the nerves healing. I haven't taken any pain medication since 6 days post op. I will try that so hopefully I will be able to tolerate the walking easier.

I was sleeved on March 22, 2016. I am still in so much pain on my right side where the stomach was removed. It hurts to walk. I called my dr's office and they said that everything sounds normal. That my muscles are healing so they start cramping up. They told me to use a heating pad on my stomach and that should help with the muscle pain. I've tried it for 3 days now and still no relief. The only relief I get is from sitting back. I know I need to walk but I am just in too much pain. My husband is so frustrated with me and I'm frustrated with myself. I'm still sitting up to sleep because it still hurts to lay down. Then I'm getting restless leg syndrome so it has been keeping me up at night. I've lost 16lbs. since surgery but I'm so depressed and really regretting the decision to have the surgery. I was so active before and now confined to the couch. Is anyone going through the same thing or have been through this post op? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
