Pain!

[MissAwesome 4]

Is yours on and off' date=' too? Like mine is worse with movements, but sometimes I can move around just fine with minor pain. And as for pain meds, I ran out of my liquid loratab around a week post op..so I don't know what to do. And yep, the ER visit is out of question for me..too much money already owed for the surgery itself as well! Hopefully we will be better soon![/quote']

Call your doctor and ask for more pain meds. Tell them what's going on. You are not going to be treated like a junkie. its not really that high level of a narcotic.

Children's liquid Tylenol works well, too, and was recommended by my doctor since narcotic pain meds cause Constipation.< /p>

Omg, I was just going to post the same thing!! I dread sleeping bc I am woken up by HORRIBLE pain with certain movements. And when I sneeze I feel like my insides just exploded. On the incision over where my tummy is left of my incision. I called the doctor this am and she said its just healing and if it gets worse to call. She said I could take tylenol pm or Benadryl for sleep. Auh!!!! It hurts so bad!!

Thanks to everyone who has shared on here I was sleeved on the 19th of July and last night I woke up with this cramp/stinging pain right under to the left of my belly button and it has not gone away since. It does come and go but a majority of the time it is there and it has me hunched over in pain and barely walking at times. I was starting to get scared because I lifted a bag of dirt yesterday and thought maybe I tore something but as I am reading this everyone has put my mind at ease, so once again Thank you

Hello, not to scare anyone but just my experience. Sleeved July 31... No pain or meds since released from hospital. Woke up yesterday with pain on left side and around big incision site. Called Dr and was adv to come to er( only bc never felt this type of pain)... Got to er and was admitted bc of high blood cell count. My body had a reaction to the gtube. Had xrays to verify no leaks and gtube was removed immediately.. was told some people bodies cant handle objects inside( glad i didnt choose the band!) But I feel soooo much better today!

Good luck to all

Dr said my sutures inside were probably tugging and my abd muscles healing!
