I'm 2 weeks post op. I was doing some things around the house but nothing too strenuous. All of a sudden I started having pain where my port site is. Anytime I move it hurts really bad. It's a muscular pain. Did anyone else feel this?

For the first two or three weeks I would have a sharp pain near the port when I would bend over. About week three or four, I started moving around a lot more and it felt like I pulled a stomach muscle. That pain was tough and lasted almost two weeks. I thought I had dislodged the port. It's been almost two months now, and it's still tender at times, but nothing like it was. My doc says that's normal. Hope you feel better soon :)

I was wondering about the port pain also. I am a massage therapist, and I returned to work 6 days post op and I have had the port pain to. I also experience it when I eat sometimes too. I thought maybe it had flipped of something. I don't see my Dr. until 2/25. Does the left side of your stomach stick out more than the right?

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
