Nine dsys post op port poking me still



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone I'm wondering how long will I have a poking feeling every time I move in certain ways specially when I lay down at night???? Is this going go away any time soon? I don't want to second guess myself, but I cannot imagine living like this forever. I guess I just want someone to say this is normal right now, and it's going to get better.

I felt the same exact way after surgery...I thought the port pain would never go away. I think it took a good couple of weeks, but then one day it just wasn't there anymore. Hang in there...it'll get better. :)

I do not remember a poking feeling but sometimes my port is sore from sleeping on it.

I also never had a poking feeling, but if I'm sitting too long, especially kinda bent over like at a table, I have soreness when I straighten my body back up. Every day is better and better though. Be sure to ask at your next post-op and good luck =)

My port area hurt for a couple weeks. It felt like I had done 10000 sit-ups. Totally normal.

Omg right now is poking me Facebook style. I'm trying to have some humor about it or I'm going to worry and I don't want that. Thx

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
