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

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
