Anyone else still in pain?

[deltatrans44 32]

I was sleeved Oct 17. So almost 2 months post but I am still having pains! wth??!! Its not constant but enough to start making me concerned. Its a sharp stitch type pain. Usually happens with sudden movements or when I try to lie on my stomach or either side in bed. Couple days ago it was SO sharp I yelled out in pain. It is on left side which I know the whole "most work" story. Ive discussed with my surg and was told I cud have pain up to 3-4 months. But just curious.....am I the ONLY one. Im already a slow loser....now im a slow healer?? smh

Thanks for your topic!! I was wondering how long the pain will last. I just had my surgery on monday and had five incisions. Only one on my right side still hurts. Everybody heal different. My cousin had the bypass nov 26 and she only needed pain meds once at the hostipal and is feeling great.

I had surgery on 11/15 and like you I have stabbing pain depending on how I move on the left side between the left and center incisions. The two incision sites themselves aren't really sore much, but the area in between... WOW.. some days are worse than others, but there are times where it feels like a knife and it burns. I did ask the about 2 weeko and they said that was the side where most of the work was done a the stomach was pulled through. I go back this Friday and plan to discuss it again. Makes getting in and out of the car a real treat.

You aren't alone!

I was sleeved on november 14th. All last week I had severe severe abdominal pain. Couldn't move. My doctor reassured meet it was muscle. Today is the first day I feel better. Good luck..

Oh man. Great to hear im not alone. Ive been going thru heck with this. And yep I relate to the not being able to move. Matter of fact only THREE weeks ago. So bad that I got very concerned about returning to work. I have a very physical job at railroad yard throwing heavy railroad switches being one of my duties. So im thinking NO way can I go back to work! (been off SINCE surgery). So I had some muscle relaxers from a previous injury. Since my surg was saying "the pain is muscular" lol I decides to take one....BAD MOVE. Ended up in E.R. So off the M.R. (it DID stop the pain tho) and back came the pain lolbvs. Cant win.

Great post! My surgeon said pain at site in which they removed tummy will hurt from 2-4 weeks. I was sleeved on 11/27, was doing fantastic up until yesterday. Now have pain every time I move or sneeze.(yeow!) I hate to hear that we're all in the same boat but I feel better knowing that I'm not alone in this.
