Sore calves and my shin bones ache



Recommended Posts

Good ,morning!

Just curious if anyone else has suffered from severe shin bone pain and super sore calves? I am sure its just from being a little weak and loosing muscle strength, but just wanted to see if anyone has suffered these same things.

I know I mentioned yesterday about my incision site, but today it feels like if I put my hand over the spot they removed stomach from, it feel almost like there is a harden area under the skin.. anyone else have/had this? I site in not oozing or looking infected, it does seen swollen in that area, but its just under my left breast.. it sometimes feels like a knife is under the skin and is cutting through.. ouch it just hurts.

Did anyone also run a fever 6 days after surgery? It has been low,. like 99.5 or so, but just got a little nervous about it.

Have a great day everyone and thanks for the feedback!

If you have been exercising/walking it could be that you need to stretch before you do so. As far as your incision, I would contact the surgeon. Your temp is not that bad. But if you call your surgeon about what you are feeling in your abdomen, then I would mention the fever. Don't take chances, you've come too far...Good luck!

I was just sleeved on Thursday and I noticed to day that my calves are very sore. I also have ran a fever up to 99.9 since Friday, but it seems to be dropping a little back to normal today. The surgeon's office called to check on me on Friday and told me to contact them if the fever is higher than 100.5.

      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!
