Sleeved 10/21.. large incision

[Seela 1,187]

Hi I was Sleeved on Monday the 21st. Aside from the eating thing if it wasn't for the pain at the site of my largest incision I would hardly even know I had surgery. Funny thing is it seems to be getting worse every day. I had my post op visit this Thursday and dr said everything looks great. Is this normal and what is your experience?

Thank you! !

I will be 4 weeks post op on Monday and my large incision has been very painful for me! I just wonder when it will feel better as I go back to work in 2 weeks!

I had surgery on14th my big one still reminds me I had surgery. Nothing I have to take pain meds for either.

Yeah... I'm only taking liquid acetaminophen when it gets bad and dr told me to continue taking my muscle relaxer at bedtime.

Thanks for responding. I wish you weren't hurting but I feel better knowing it's not just me! Lol

I'm a little over 7 weeks out and my big incision is still a little sore, I think it is from the muscle inside still healing. It doesn't hurt constantly but if I do something stupid it lets me know it's still there!

Hi...I was sleeved on the 16th and my large incision started feeling really good! Could get out of bed without moaning! Then just 4 days ago started having bad pains in my sleep have got worse every day. Now the swelling in my abdomen looks like it did 2 days out of surgey.... What is going on? Had my follow up yesterday any he said he thought everything was good. I feel like I need an antibiotic. I get infected at the drop of a hat.... I guess we will wait and keep our fingers crossed.... Anyone else having sharp pains that wake you up under the bad incision area? Or any later swelling after the swelling had gone down somewhat?

I can't tell if I'm swollen because I'm fat..lol.. but yes, it was getting better now getting worse again. Starting back to work on Tuesday, I'm a hair stylist and nervous about the soreness and lack of energy.

I was sleeved on the 14th and mine does not hurt anymore. I have walked, walked, and walked. Feel fortunate.

Hmf... guess I could be walking more. Ok.. I vow to literally walk my ass off tomorrow!

How about you? Maybe try taking the muscle relaxer.. or a heating pad.
