Hello all I had sx July 30th and everything went well but now I'm feeling a burning sensation if I move the wrong way! It is so painful and not sure why all of a sudden this has started.

I'm guessing it is probably the stitch in your muscle. But if it is really bothering you or it starts to get worse, go get it checked out. I started having pain above my big incision earlier in the week. I thought it was my muscle incision, but it didn't get better, just worse. So I ended up in the ER Saturday. They did some tests and told my I have sludge in my gallbladder.

So, unless you're really unlucky (like me-I always seem to end up with the weird complications) you're probably ok. But it's always good to check in with your surgeon. :-)

I was sleeved 8/6 and have also been in extreme pain when I move. I'm still on pain meds and have a binder which helps but getting up and down is the worst. I go see my dr on thurs. I'm glad I'm not the only one who has not had an easy recovery. I'm supposed to go back to work next we'd. Praying that I will feel much better before then.

Hang in there! It will definitely get better in time. Getting up and down was the worst for me too! I still have pain when I'm moving around, and I'm 4-weeks out now. But it does get better, day by day! :)

Thank you all so much for the feed back! I have my 2 week check up tomorrow and it seems to be getting a little better everyday. The worst seems to be at night but I'm glad to know I'm not the only one! I'm 19 lbs down so far and very excited! So I'll try not to complain too much.

      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.
