When Could You Sleep On Your Stomach?

[Cindy Amato Dashko 11]

I cannot sleep on my right or left side or on my stomach. If I try on my left I get a sharp sudden horrible pain? I had pains before in lower abdomen by left side of belly button. Also had a CT scan an nothing wrong. Getting annoyed about the sleeping, anyone heard of such pains before? I also have diverticulitus so I am always thinking it is that.

slept on my stomach first night home with no problems.

cindy, does your dr know this? i am assuming. i hope you feel better and rest

Yes My Doctor knows and he is stumped as to why? The pain is getting better but still not the way I used to be. I feel like the port is rubbing somehow? Thanks for answering me back. Been trying to find someone who has the same issues

just saw you were kinda banded recently...i know about 2 weeks ago, my port site was (tender) tissue come to find out it was the scar forming around the band. do you think that could be it??

I thought that too I just don't know. It happens alot when I bend down to pick something up or when I sneeze. The pain did move from one spot by my belly button to now where the port is. I am thinking that it is still healing. My surgery was 5/18. I thank you so much for talking to me. If it is the tender tissue I guess it will go away? I am praying... I have come to just deal with the pain. OH it hurts alot when I sit or after I eat too? Weird ****!

well, we just had major surgery remember and they cut our tummies and insides. i had 5 incisions, so its bound to hurt a smidge

.

it hurt me when i bent (at waist/stomach) or stood up...it does get better. my port spot def let me know it was there up until about 2 weeks ago.

i will talk to you whenever hon. you are def not alone

It was 3 days. I'm a stomach sleeper so I'm so thankful it was relatively quick!! I still can't really flop down and sleep like I use to but I usually start on my side and work to be on my stomach, slowly.

How long after surgery until you could sleep on your stomach again?

Took me about 7 days and I used a body pillow which helped cushion my port

i still can't sleep on my stomach and its been a month since i was banded..very sore..like a bruise to push on the port area

I just had surgery a month ago and never gave it a thought... I'm sure I was sleeping on my stomach the same night.
