9 days post sleeve in Texas.

Sleeved on Aug 12. Still pretty sore on my right side when moving around. Not so bad when I sit or lay down. Anyone else have this?

That is totally normal. You will have pangs and such occassionally for quite a while as your body adjusts and grows back together. Just don't lift anything heavier than 10 pounds for 6 weeks, and don't do any core or abdominal exercises until your surgeon says you can, and you will be just fine. Best wishes to you!

I had a spot that hurt much longer than the others, but it was where the incision was larger to insert the tube that removed my tummy. There is a good chance that is what it is.

Hi there. I was sleeved on the 12th too. I have that same pain. Asked the dr and they mentioned they had put a stitch to the ab muscle which is why the large incision is "stuck down" looking. They said it will pop in 2-3weeks and then all the pain would be gone. Which I am so looking towards cause it wraps around my whole side and towards my belly button. Just one more thing to work through with this I suppose.
