I was sleeved 05/24. I have been suffering from severe pain at my largest incision where my excess stomach was removed. Like 10/10 pain with basically any movement. I saw my surgeon who states there is a dissolvable suture in that muscle and once it dissolves in about another week, the pain should improve. Has anyone else experienced this? He put me on a muscle relaxer and a very strong narcotic today. Feeling quite discouraged. Everything else post-op has been fine (drinking/eating/my other surgical sites). TIA.

Yes, he forewarned me as well but this is out of the realm of normal. Hopefully these meds will help. Thanks for the responses. ❤️
