    I had a full gastric bypass and though I had some discomfort right after the surgery, I didn't find it too bad. I think it depends on your pain tolerance. I tend to have a high tolerance, but don't

    When I was in the hospital I asked for pain meds, by the time I was discharged I had no pain. I wouldn't hesitate to ask them for something to make you comfortable.

    I had a full gastric bypass and though I had some discomfort right after the surgery, I didn't find it too bad. I think it depends on your pain tolerance. I tend to have a high tolerance, but don't worry, you're probably dealing with muscle spasms in the surgery areas. It was so much better the day after surgery and I only had to spend one night in the hospital. Within a couple of days, I didn't even need the small amount of morphine they gave me to go home with. It's all going to be worth it!!
