I would talk to the doctor about that. 7 weeks out-you shouldn't be sore anymore. I'm 6 weeks out AND I had a large hernia repair at the time of my VSG :my soreness subsided weeks ago.

Four weeks out here and the bottom left incision will tweak if I lay down wrong or get up wrong. Usually quick movement on that side. Other than that, all good.

7 weeks out today, and feel really good, no pain. Call your doc.

I had a similar pain at about 2-3 weeks post op. It hurt to get in and out of the car, bending over, laughing, lay on my left side, etc and it was awful!! It was so bad that I had to take pain meds for it. I went to my doc and he said it's common in sleeve patients at some point after surgery. Could be a muscle strain (I was playing basketball with my kids - not so smart) or the muscles healing after being cut during surgery. I definitely suggest contacting your doctor. Feel better!!

I'm having the same issue. I am almost 3 weeks post op and just started to have more pain in my large incision, burning, like stretching pain. No puss, discharge, or heat though. I'm calling doc tomorrow. Ugh! I was doing so well too. I do have a toddler, so I may have overdone it!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
