Laughter, Not Really The Best Medicine... For Right Now.

I was sleeved Nov. 15th, since then all of my incisions have no pain except the big one on my left side. Since my surgery it has hurt me to laugh so I just tried not to as much as possible well tonight I think it all caught up with me. I couldn't control it and man did it HURT! this may sound cheesy but when will I be able to laugh again? How long does it normally take for that big incision to heal?

Good luck with that though I don't really know, I'd imagine a couple weeks and light laughter, it'll be all healed given time of course. This may pose a future prob for me too.

I was sleeved on 11/14 and Saturday my sister did a prank to my dad and laughing was inevitable...after I finished I was in so much pain I had to take a Percocet.

Remember the value of holding a pillow against your tummy at times of movement and laughter.

I tried but it didn't help much

I tried that too but it didn't help me much either. I was literally laughing and screaming in pain at the same time. I didn't know that was possible.

Seems like I remember reading somewheres it can be up to 6-8 weeks before that big incision is healed.

Oh boy, I was hoping to be at the gym by then! Ha oh well, the body will do what it needs to do I guess.
