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.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
