Question

I actually called my doctor about same thing today and he said twinges and "tearing" feeling are normal (I'm 20 days out). I do notice that if I sit too long, when I get up it really hurts. Haven't walked since Sunday. Mad at myself. My lousy excuse is that my job is so stressful and I get home so late. Those are lame excuses. Have to do better!

Good luck feeling better soon.

Hi everyone I am so glad to read all these posts. I had my surgery in May and it was bad. sleeping was the worse only could sleep on back. Showers were bad to. Forget bending it was so painful. I actually did pick up something heavy and was so scared I did something or had hernia. But went for MRI and all was fine. It's been 6 months and it is soo much better. But I still have issues with bending down or if I move a certain way. Also my last visit to doctor I got a fill and doctor couldn't find port first time. Finally found it but that night I was super sore and than was bruised bad. For some reason the pain below port was tender and kept getting pains. Weird. I think it just takes so much time since we all a foreign object in there. Wish all the best and its so nice to have a support system here.

Hello all... I had my surgery back in March and while my post surgical pain was minimal, I did have the "tearing" sensation at my port sight. I still do from time to time. It is not as bad as it use to be but it still feels like it is "pulling" sometimes. Especially when my trainer makes me do dad gum burpees, which I must say that I absolutely HATE!. lol. But it has all become tolerable and totally worth it. 75 lbs later it is SO VERY worth it.
