Im with you, im 11 days out and still have pain. It got better about 2 days ago but still im not driving or doing alot. Some people just take longer to feel better. I was scared at first cause i was reading the same things you were but went to my dr, yesterday and it is all good, he said people are just differant. I do have a low pain level. Just hang in there and you will feel better.

The pain is different for everyone. I still have some soreness 7 weeks post-op & it was really hurting bad for a few weeks after surgery. I just got checked to see if I had developed a hernia since I "shouldn't" be having pain at this time but I am fine. The doctor said some people are more sensitive & I probably had an allergic reaction to the stitches & glue he used since I also have redness at the incision sites. Make sure you tell your doctor about your pain but know that you aren't alone in feeling this way. My pain is going away more & more everyday.

thanks guys.....the pain reminds me a lot of my c-sections(i had 3 of them) and i thought that this couldnt be as bad as those, but boy was i wrong! does walking or wearing a 'tummy tucker" help you guys??

for me the pain was mostly gone by the end of week 2 post op. I sneezed one day and didn't get to hold my stomach fast enough and it felt like a ripping sensation going through my largest incision... That one took the longest time to heal, but still better by then end of week 2. Hang in there!!!

Just made me realize it's coming up on the allergy season that sets me off -- late August into September. I need to get on meds as soon as possible because I sneeze constantly for 6 weeks and I will only be 3 weeks post-op.
