Sensation of Insides Moving



Recommended Posts

I'm six days post-op and have an uncomfortable sensation of my insides moving/readjusting near my sleeve when I get up or walk around. It hurts a little and makes me a tad nauseous, but it only lasts for about a few seconds.

Is this a normal sensation? I would love to hear your experience! I'm hoping this feeling goes away soon.

I felt that too, somewhat. Do you have an abdominal binder? I found that helped me.

The binder helps. Maybe I'll try making it a bit tighter. Thanks EmmyJ

I have that too. Just for a few moments when I get up and start to move around. For me I'm pretty sure it's a combination of gas and gravity pulling on my larger incision. Just one of the many things that will get better over time (I hope!).

I had a belly binder from my hysterectomy-it has been a blessing. I'm 4d post op with a vsg. I'm a side sleeper and I couldn't find it my first 2 days home. Found it today and it's allowed me to really be comfortable while napping.

it was a God send after my hysterectomy-and it's really allowing me to lay and sit comfortably after this surgery as well.

I did not feel my insides moving but I had a little nausea two days post op VSG from moving around. It would go away soon after laying down though. After my partial hysterectomy, with uterus gone and connective tissue cut, I could feel loose organs? moving around when I walked for a year.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
