Post op Pain

[ChopswyfT 1]

Okay my surgery is scheduled for next week, I am trying to get an idea about the pain I can expect.

I have had two C-Sections, so I know how that feels, as well as a Gall Bladder removal which was laporoscopic also. That pain was minimal in comparison to the 2 C-Sections.

So, for any of you ladies that have had C-Sections...does the pain even compare ?

I have had three c-sections and being banded was a walk in the park. There is no comparison between the two as far as surgical pain. When I had my c-sections, trying to walk was terrible. You will walk fine after being banded.

Haven't had one, but I have had a previous full cut open stomach surgery. This was easier, not as easy and I thought it would be, I was up and moving pretty quickly at the hospital. it's just really sore for a few days. It's a little deceiving because your cuts are so tiny, but it still hurts internally. Nothing unbearable.

I have had two c-sections. In my opinion, the pain was comparable! It was very surprised that I was in that much pain. I do have a low pain tolerance, but I didn't expect that. I had wished that somebody had told me that it might hurt like that before my surgery. I was very sore for about a week post-op, but now that I am 5 weeks out, I feel great! I am 27lbs lighter and I'm loving it!! Good luck to you!!

This will feel like nothing for you. I thought it would feel much like a C section as well, but I couldn't have been more wrong! It's so much easier!

I have also had 2 c sections. one in 08 and one in 09. I got banded today and the pain is nothing compared to a c section. I got out of bed to go to the bathroom about a hour after surgery and has no pain. I feel a little sore in the belly but that is it. If you have had 2 c sections this will be super easy for you. Good luck!

I had one emergency csection which was horrible as far as pain goes. The only spot that was sore for me for awhile is where they put the port, other than that the pain level for me was on the lower end. Best of Luck!!
