I had Sleeve surgery on 2/4. Everything has been going beautifully. No complications. Suddenly, I started having pain at my large incision site and went the the ER. They did an CAT scan, Chest xray and checked for blood clots, did blood work and urine and found nothing. They said there is some inflammation, but nothing to be worried about. Today, the pain is worse. HAs anyone experienced this? Could it be something more than inflammation? I'm debating going back tot he ER.

I would go back if you feel worse today. Just because they didn't find it the first time doesn't mean that there isn't something there. Best of luck to you!! Please let us know how you are doing.

ETA What does your surgeon say today? Have you contacted re: increased pain?

YES. That is what is happening to me although i have not had a day go by that I didn't have some discomfort or pain. So last week was awful my pain was so bad and my tummy was tender to touch. I went to the dr. yesterday. Everything is fine all my blood work and everything. She gave me a muscle relaxant to see if that will help the inflammation and relax the muscle enough to com you healing without an extreme amount of pain. She said I could have moved wrong or sat wrong, stretched wrong to cause the muscle more inflammation. My suggestion is to call your surgeon to try to get an appointment to see what she/he has to say.

That's terrible. I hope you feel better soon. Please keep us posted.

Muscle inflammation. I did have a Heaton after surgery and am thinking that had something to do with it. Everything else has been going beautifully. No nausea no vomiting no hunger. Im 100% compliant and cautious. I did have my son on my back. But atnanmonth out, I thought I'd be fine.

Please keep us posted. Feel better lady.

Have them check to see if its not your gall bladder. Losing weight can cause gall stones and it can hurt in that area. Good luck and hope you feel better soon.
