Hi! I had a lapband to bypass revision yesterday and I am home today. I feel pretty good, but the pain when it hits is terrible. Can anyone tell me how long their post op pain lasted?

I had my surgery on 9/14 and the throbbing lasted for about 3 days and I still feel pain when I sit or get up too fast on the right side of my stomach.

Thank you. Best of luck n your journey.

Hi
Welcome to the family. I also had the lapband the gastric bypass. It will last 3 to 4 weeks before you feel better.

Thank you ladies! I am nearly three weeks out and I feel fantastic!!

Had my lapband to bypass on 09.04 and it was the 3.5 post op week for me and no pain.

Congratulations! Did you have your band removed and the bypass in one surgery? My surgeon wouldn’t do both at the same time. I had my band removed in January and am scheduled to have bypass surgery on November 5th. Once the band was removed, my insurance required a 6 month weight mgmt program.

I'm a sleeve to bypass revision patient and had surgery on 9/29 and I'm still having pain.

Yes, I had to have my Lapland removed because it caused dysphagia, GERD, and a hiatal herbal. I suffered for 5 years. He was able to remove the band and do the bypass at the same time.

So glad your recovery is going well! Best of luck with your weight loss!
