mamakate78 4 Posted December 28, 2012 Questions for some post op VSG, I'm almost 5 weeks out and every time I bend over, like tonight in the movies in my seat, I get this kinda intense burning in my stomach. It def feels muscular, or tissue related, but hoping I didn't do something? It almost feels like I'm being stabbed slowly, lol, sorry only way i can describe it, and I have to sit up quick. Is this just healing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
suzthebrit 146 Posted December 28, 2012 Sounds like your interior sutures are healing. I wouldn't worry too much until the pain is constant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tuturunner 29 Posted December 28, 2012 This also happened to someone four weeks out. I've had this pain from surgery. I'm 17 days out and the pain is far less now. I describe it as being stabbed with a hot knife. Is the pain near the area where they took your stomach out? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
