Had sleeve surg on Monday as well as hiatial hernia repair. Really, really sore. Is this normal? I know it was major surgery but whoa this is as bad a csections. Is it just me?

@@LM337 - Yes it's normal. You just gave birth to 85% of your stomach.

Its you. There shouldnt be that much pain.

Day 4 should be the worst, things seemed to start improving each day from day 5 for me.

As long as it's just soreness your fine. Just keep an eye out that the incisions are warm to the touch and/or oozing. Mileage varies as to how much pain each individual experiences. Some have very mild pain. Some have more intense pain and need pain meds for the first week or so. As long as nothing appears infected you're okay.

I had the sleeve with the hernia repair and I had the pain and soreness as well. It did go away a week later and it was only mildly sore. If it gets worse tell your doctor. Its better to let the doctor worry instead of you sitting there worrying. But if its just the pain from the procedures without anything else happening ie... no fever, no spiking or radiating pain, take it a day at a time and keep the doctor informed. I would say you probably needed a stronger pain killer post op. Tell the dr so he or she can make the appropriate changes for your comfort.
