Let me start by saying how much I appreciate everyone here and the community! So many questions answered and worries calmed.
I am 2 weeks post-op tomorrow (roux bypass). My pain has consistently been on upper right side, but has stayed well controlled since surgery with very few meds needed, though I do have high pain tolerance.
Concern is, I have bruising in that area, which is not "around" any incisions. I recall getting a shot of something in my stomach the night after surgery while in the hospital. The area with bruising shows mark like maybe that was where shot was given, but hazy to me with meds and coming off anesthesia. Pain seems to not be much better and appt is still 3 days out.
Only other symptoms post-op is still dealing with dizziness and exhausted easily after little activity. Assume that is body adjusting to changes and healing.
Anyone experience the like? Any ideas if just coincidence and is from surgery probably? I attached a photo to give idea of area and such if that helps. And if looks "normal" in area. The darker spots next to bruise and around incisions are clean, not sure why so much discoloration still there.
Figured I'd ask here before freaking out and having to get to doctor earlier.
I appreciate you all!
