I know everyone's pain tolerance is different. But I'm just curious when does the pain from incisions start going away! It's still early post op because I'm still in the hospital! It's only 3 days post op! So I'm just curious

I don't think my incisions ever bothered me. Quite honestly I didn't feel much pain throughout the entire process. (Shots and the IV was more painful than anything else) and I never touched the pain killer button they hooked me up to while in the hospital and never took any of the pain meds that were prescribed once I got home.

What I did feel was more of an overall soreness. My stomach felt sore, like as if I had just done 4million sit ups or crunches....I think I felt sore like that for about a week and a half post op.

Only one of my incisions hurt. The other 4 don't even feel like they are there. My one that hurts has already decreased in pain. When do you expect to be released?

You should feel soreness that area has just been through a lot of changes. Please make sure what you are feeling is pain and you are not getting it confused with the gas pressure. Most people think they should hurt so they mistakenly think the pressure is pain. Don't do too much, there is a stick inside of you (most don't know this). Take yor time you will have enough time to lose weight and shape up. Good luck to you and a speedy recovery.

A stick??? What stick? I mean I know some people have one up their ......

But is there a mysterious stick that I'm not aware of????

Damn I didn't get the stick. Does it cost extra? Like the dumping option?

HAHAHAHAHAHA what stick?? There is no stick!

HAHAHAHAHAHA what stick?? There is no stick!

Silly girl it's a secret stick! "Most don't know"

ohhh that's right.. I won't tell anyone!

Well the first surgery that i had i had no pain just a bit sore never even filled the prescription for the pain meds. Three Weeks later my second surgery results were so different! My incisions hurt bad and they are still sore two Weeks out i just try to rest and take some of the pain meds prescribed.

I felt better after four days. Make sure to take advantage of the pain killers they give you. It helps you to get up and move around more which promotes healing. Good luck!

Oh this is a wild group tonight... The stick is the bougie, Ms. Salt, used to "size" the sleeve. But they take it out before they end the surgery,

And I had discomfort, no real pain, and the hospital drugs were superb!

I had incisional pain at one site (the drain site). It took about two weeks to go away. The NP at my surgeon's office told me that's completely normal and it varies for people in terms of whether they get incisional pain and how long it lasts. She said the longest she had ever seen it go on was 4 weeks.
