When Do You...

stop feeling where you had surgery? What I mean is..I "feel" an uncomfortable feeling in between the incision sites. Its not a sharp pain..just a dull pain..not horrible and if I push really hard where it hurts...rubbing the pain site..it usually with feel better instantly . When did you not notice that you had surgery? This may sound crazy but in my mind I see the staples rubbing place on the outside of my intestines! I know crazy..

It took me about 2 weeks to get to a point where I really didn't have any pain or discomfort and it was easy to forget I had surgery.

It takes time. Sometimes, when I am really full, I can feel the left side of my stapleline against my abdominal wall. Your incision site is healing and it will take time to heal and then you will forget it's even there. No problems and no, your not crazy. LOL ;)

to be honest I didn't feel myself again until 2 months out. But when I did It was amazing, and now I feel great everyday!! Well worth the "torture" to get to this place.

im nine months out and when I eat to much i can feel my sleeve. it is like a hard little golf ball inside my abdomin. it is really weird.....it doesnt hurt, im just uncomfortable from eating to much....gotta watch that! :)

I can't feel anything unusual at all. I had soreness the first week or so, but never could I feel my actual stomach or staple line!
