I'm 3 weeks post opt and for some reason the last 2 days my stomach hurts in the middle of my stomach and sensitive to the touch. Any reason why its hurting know? Its all around my bell button.

I just started getting occasional pain right near my belly button, like a sharp pinchy feeling. It's tolerable but hurts some. I'm almost 3 weeks as well.

maybe healing pain

Don’t ignore that, I also had it and ended up in the emergency room where they put me out to pop a hernia back into place because it was obstructing my intestine, so I went to my Bariatric Dr because emergency room couldn’t do anything else, and I needed emergency surgery on that hernia so I wouldn’t be put on a colostomy bag...so keep the pain minimal, if it gets worse call you dr ASAP I hope that helped

I will contact my Dr Monday to be on the safe side

Good luck, I always say better safe than sorry!

I talked to my Dr today and told them that its soar all around my bell button even to the touch. Also that one of the scab starts healing then it falls off and it is green underneath . The Dr they said to keep an eye on scab that wont heal and if I get a fever to let them right away. Going to move up my follow up appointment.

What kind of surgery did you have?

sleeve on February 22

Off to the Dr. today. Stomach pain is getting worse and one of my scar from a different surgery looks black. So will see what's going on. I had a CT Scan done and it showed a small kidney stone, ventral fat-containing incisional hernia and chronic hematomas. Any one else have this happen to them?

let us know how you are

I'm so happy everything is fine. I'm a slow healer. The Fat hernia and chronic hematomas is nothing to worry about. He recommend cortisone cream for my stomach.

Still it's a good thing you checked things out, worry and fretting steal sunshine from a pretty day!?????

Thanks for the support. Still stomach pain but its getting better every day.

Back at the Dr this morning. My stomach is killing me. Not able to sleep on my side. Waiting on Authorization for ct scan with dye. Hope it doesn't take too long.

And PLEASE let us know what happens to you, I can figure many things out( because I'm rather a medical geek) but this has me mystified, and I so want you to feel better! I care about all my WL friends, just the nurtured way my mind runs.
