pattivalvo 23 Posted August 6, 2012 I I just had gastric sleeve surgery 6days ago and just got off the liquid loritab yesterday. 2days ago I started feeling a burning sensation just left and below my belly button. I wasent sure if I've always had this pain and it was covered up with the medicine and if this is something to be concerned about? Hv any of u experienced this?

Cindy H 6 Posted August 7, 2012 I personally haven't had that. Do you have a drain still? The only agonizing pain I had was from my drain. If it doesn't get better, call the ER. Did they do the surgery through your belly button? That could just be the healing process. I hope you feel better soon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tifgrin 6 Posted August 8, 2012 Hi! I'm 10 days out and having the same exact problem. I also stopped my loritab 2 days ago and I'm thinking I may need it again at least at night. My incision burns and just throbs. 1 luauna reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hm734 228 Posted August 11, 2012 I have this pain now, at 24 days post op. My doctor says it is normal. Mine is on the inside but occasionally it also hurts on the outside at my skin. There is no incision where it hurts either. It is below my belly button slightly to the left. 1 pattivalvo reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
