I remember the incision where they took my stomach out of hurt really bad for a little over a week. I had to have help showering. But, that was only getting up, sitting down, or laying down. Once I was down, I was pretty much okay and I didn't take any pain killers other then Tylenol after the first five or six days so the pain does get bearable before it disappears completely. I'm sorry you're struggling! I'd ask the doctors for some more pain killers if you feel like you need them. The gas also caused quite a bit of discomfort and pain, but walking helped get rid of it. It did stick around for a few days though...

What pain killers have they given you? If nothing, ask for something.
Even with painkillers, getting up and down, getting in and out of bed will be fairly uncomfortable for a while.

im on my bed after the surgery literally a few hours ago...when does the pain stop?? getting out of bed hurts and laying down hurts and breathing hurts. the hurting is the stomach

i feel like crying please when does it stop

Others on here have posted about it and yes they will do surgery. Some said they have special mesh underwear they give you with a pad.

Hi, my surgery will be carried out tomorow but im on my period, can i still do the surgery? has anyone else gotten the surgery during their period?

Hi
Sleeve done 11/29/21. Doing pretty well in my opinion. They don't really prepare you for the mind blown moment. At least that's what I call it. Today, this morning actually it dawned on me... my relationship with food would never be the same. This is a good thing for me. But when it hits you you don't expect that punch. I enjoy reading the comments here. Yall get it.
