I Wake Up With My Stomach Hurting



Recommended Posts

Is it normal 3 weeks out to wake up each morning with stomach pain. Not gas it's a dull to sometimes intense pain after I'm up and moving for an hour or so it disappears. Normal?

Is this at the incision sites, or is it deeper, like where your stomach is?

The fact that it goes away is a pretty good sign. It's likely that you sleep in an awkward position, or maybe you toss & turn a lot which creates extra stress on your incisions.

But with some of the complications we've seen lately, from twisted stomachs to leaks that caused some miserable experiences I do have to say, if this is not distinguishable as incision pain go see your doctor. And if they seem dismissive, don't hesitate to get a second opinion.

It's not insisions it is deeper inside. I to toss and turn a lot I haven't slept well but a couple of nights since surgery. My doctor is 4 hrs away I'm going to call them today.

It could be scar tissue below the incisions. This bothered me for about 3 weeks.

I'm having it too, Its like a dull aching, especially when I breathe in deep. I think maybe it's just still a little swollen. I was wondering if I was filling it up too much with mushies and it was stretching and sore. I am really paranoid about that right now because I can't tell when I'm full until I am stuffed. I know, I know I'm still working on the signals. It also seems to hurt more (or maybe again its subconcious) when I seem to sleep on the side my stomach is. Hoping its just still soreness from surgery.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
