jis2blessed 14 Posted January 6, 2013 I was sleeved on 12/18 and was doing really well and then yesterday I started feeling more pain at the area where my biggest incision was internally. It's not horrible but it just almost feels like a pulling or something. When I press the area, I can feel a hard lump which maybe was always there but if it was I never noticed it. Of course I never pressed it before. Has anyone experienced this? I see my physician on Monday but its not the surgeon and I don't know if they will know anything.

tuturunner 29 Posted January 6, 2013 When do you experience the pain? All the time or only when moving (sitting down or up, twisting, etc.)? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lilbearzmom 584 Posted January 6, 2013 Sounds like that thing with your internal incision- the NP at my office said it could be mild or severe and that people sometimes went to the ER it was so painful, but it's normal. The internal staples are dissolving or something. -Kendra Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jis2blessed 14 Posted January 6, 2013 It's kind of all the time. But I sneezed a couple times and was fine then-when I was first recovering it was murder to sneeze. I have had a lot of gas today so I'm hoping that is it. Like Kendra said maybe its something with the staples. Do you guys feel a lump at all or did you at any time?
