Sharp Pain While Walking & Bending

M having sharp pain while walking and bending on and around large incision site. Not sure if it's normal healing or sign of something wrong...I'm seeing the dr tomorrow morning but I'm a little nervous :(

Anybody else have this happen?

My large site is where my port was, and if I bend the wrong way or lay on it sometimes, I feel a twinge. I'm sure all is okay, it's just healing still!

The most walking I have gone until today was around the house. But today I ventured out and had the same type pain. very sharp not exactly on top of the port, but close to it.

Figure there is probably something in there stretching.....I think its normal, I have have read of several other having similar pains.

I am about 20 months out. Today I did a long walk about 3.5 miles with some good hills. I had a bit of pain in the port area. After cooling down the pain went away.

I hope my mind is just getting the better of me! I'm so terrified that my port isn't meshing w/my body n dr will have to do another surgery to remove it, let heal, n then yet another surgery after that to restore another port. I've heard of this happening and it terrifies me! I just want to b successful!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
