Pain?

How much pain is too much? I've used all my pain meds (as ordered) and not excessively. But I'm Hurting so bad I can't breathe sometimes. I'm constantly bent over in pain. Is this normal ?? It comes and goes.

Also, I had gastric bypass march 3. So far I have lost 22 lbs. 286 to 262.

That sounds like too much pain. Call your doctor only he can determine how serious that is. it could be something as simple as gas that happens quite a lot but still better be safe than sorry. Hope you feel better soon

I agree :/ I would call your doctor and make sure everything is okay... And just take it easy

Just agreeing with the other two posters.

Severe pain always means call your doctor. No exceptions. The cause may very well not be serious, but pain itself is always a concern. Call your doctor.

Call doc!! It is what you are paying them for. Even if there is nothing wrong you made need stronger pain meds!

Everyones pain tolerance is different. I had quite a bit until about three weeks post op, while others in my group had none. I even have a high tolerance! Call the surgeon and get relief. Nothing to be ashamed of!

Glad to hear that! Hang in there!
