I suppose I will call the md today, just curious if anyone has had a very intense sharp pain when getting up or laying down, it is in the largest of the incisions and feels like I ripped something. Great. Very painful for a few seconds, then goes away.

When were you banded? I had pains like that and couldn't get out of bed unassisted for quite a few days because of it. I would definitely call your dr if it is really bad.

Yes, if the pain is troublesome definitely call your doctor. It would help to know when you were banded, I had various pains for about 1 1/2 -2 weeks which is normal. For the first few days, incision pain while changing positions is very normal. Port incision pain will be the worst and last the longest.

Yes, my pain feels like a burning sensation. It hangs around for about 5 seconds and them I'm fine. I thought I might have ripped something, but am not sure. I plan to call the doc on Monday. I hate that feeling and am scared about internal bleeding, although I have not see any new bruising which is a sign of internal bleeding.

      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! 😞
