I waa stapled day before yesterday. The pain in my right flank is very severe; hoping it will get better soon.

I am day #3 post-surgery. Yesterday the incision to the right of my navel was pretty terrible. It felt like I was tearing inside. I think I did too much walking the day after surgery. Today it is better, but it still stings & burns a lot. I feel that it will probably get a little better each day.

My pain was doing well until I picked up my puppy. I think I might have pulled a muscle on my left side. It’s sensitive to the touch and hurts now. I’m 1 week 5 days out. I didn’t realize how easy it would be

Hi, I have the same pain it’s mostly around the biggest incision (right side) under the rib cage, but it only appears when I’m sleeping on my side or bending to much on my stomach when seating like I want to pick up something from ground, i started to feel this pain from like a week ago when I started to sleep on my side, I don’t know if it’s normal 20 days has passed from sleeve surgery, is this normal? How long does it take to go away?

How long did it take for the pain to go away? My pain started yesterday and I had the sleeve done October 13th

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
