VitaleEM 44 Posted October 16, 2012 Am on day seven, post op, and still very sore inside. I cant bend over and pick something up off the ground and must get up and sit down very carefully. Is this normal? All fellow sleevers, can you share with me at what point your insides began to feel more "normal"! Thanks all! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doxieville 799 Posted October 16, 2012 Very normal. Could last for a few months. Laporscopy surgery can be deceiving. You just had MAJOR surgery even if it doesn't look like you did. Plus you've got stitches inside tugging at your muscle wall. Don't overdo things or you will hurt more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Carly4HandinSD 313 Posted October 16, 2012 I am 4 weeks out and even though my outside is healed and not sore, my stomach still is. If I do too much I get a pain right on my left side where my stomach is. It is different for everyone and their healing process, but just take it easy.. don't push yourself too hard. Just take the time you need to heal, rather than push it and end up hurting yourself 1 VitaleEM reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
