Stomach Dent And Bad Inscision Pain?
Fallenangel2904 replied to Fallenangel2904's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thank you all! I was able to sleep a little probably from sheer exhaustion. I'm not a back sleeper so I'm sore from that too. I haven't spoken to my dr yet because I had literally just left there. I'm gonna give them a call today but I don't think there there since its Saturday. If not ill see how I feel later and wait it out before I go. I think I'm just paranoid. I feel like its because I have a large tummy and its pulling because when I put a hand under It and lift it its less painful. I wish I had a compression garment or something. Thank you everyone who has a dent also! I was worried about that! That's my main source of pain, it makes sense that that is where they cut through the muscle. I guess knowing that it helps me understand why it hurts as much as it does. Gonna take some more tylonol and finish sipping my morning water. Thanks all! -

Did You Bruise?
Fallenangel2904 replied to mezanne1401's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm all bruised from the blood thinners also. Funny the incision sites aren't very bruised at all but my arms (where they have my the blood thinners) look like Hell! -
Stomach Contracting?
Fallenangel2904 replied to Nicolanz's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have this too. I feel it contract and then fee like I need to burp then there is a split second of pain. Idk what it is but it's been happening on and off. I think it's gas but maybe it's reflux? Anyone? -

Let's Check In November 2012 Sleevers!
Fallenangel2904 replied to timetobefree's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
So I just got home from the hospital- surgery on Wednesday. I'm in pain still. It's sore to the max and I have a big dent and it feels kind of like I got stabbed. Ouch. The pain was a lot worse though, and the nausea was the worst part for the first two days. I was so sick I honestly had regrets at first. Not trying to scare anyone but I need to tell it like it is. Today I'm doing a lot better, I'll take the pain over the nausea any day. And it's getting a little better. This will all be worth it soon. George or anyone else who is a little out can I ask a q? I have what feels like tightness in my sleeve. It feels like it contacts and it will hurt for a second and then feel like I need to burp. Is this gas? I'll gas x help? Or is it something else? -
Any November 14Th Sleevers?
Fallenangel2904 replied to veronica84's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I'm home. I didn't have such an easy time. He first two days I was in a lot of pain, and very nauseous. I did have several moments of 'why did i do this to myself?' My nurses were amazing though. I stayed in recovery the first night and didn't get moved to a room until the second day. Feeling much better today. Still in pain, but no no nausea! For all you people that were able to get right up I applaud you! I couldn't really walk around until today the pain was more intense when I stood. It's slowly getting better and better though! I know this will all be worth it soon! -
This Is It! Surgery Today!
Fallenangel2904 replied to Fallenangel2904's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Just want to let everyone know I'm okay! I didn't have wifi at the hospital and my Internet connection wasn't good so I had to wait until I got home. The first two days were rough I'm not gonna lie. I was prepared for it but it still threw me for a bit of a loop. The pain was bad but the nauseous made it worse. Today was a LOT better. No nausea! So I was finally able to start eating and they saw I was okay to go home. The pain is still there but it's just very sore. There's a big dent and that's the most painful spot. The other ones are just tender. I know in a few more days ill be a lot better. That morphing pump was my BFF for a while lol. I was sad when they cut me off. Put me on Tylenol with codine now. I'm not hungry but I think there's trapped air in my sleeve because I keep feeling it contact and it hurts for a second and feel like I need to burp? It's going to take some getting used to lol. Thank you all who showed me support, encouragement, messaged me- it means so much to me! Wanted to check and and let everyone know I'm ok! -
Just a quick note to let everyone know I'm home and doing okay! Hospital didn't have wifi and my phone wasn't cooperating so I wasn't able to check in sooner. I'm home, still in some pain but resting. Thank you ALL so much for the love and support!
