barebones 28 Posted July 22, 2012 Well, having had multiple abdominal surgeries, I can tell you that big or small, the incisions are gonna smart for a while. Probably a good 6 weeks before the tenderness goes away. Hang in there! I am one day behind you on our journey!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Winter84 35 Posted July 22, 2012 Ok thanks, I was wondering if I was doing to much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mrs.D 39 Posted July 22, 2012 Did you have open RNY? I had lap...incisions were closed w Dermabond glue, so no staples. Hope you feel better soon:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Winter84 35 Posted July 22, 2012 Yes I had a open RNY,I felt a lot better when my doctor took the drain out, I have 13 staples and it's very sore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mrs.D 39 Posted July 23, 2012 Ouch, that does sound painful...I didn't have a drain, but I hear they are uncomfortable. I hope the staples are out soon....don't worry, you will get back to normal:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
barebones 28 Posted July 23, 2012 Ah... The drains are wonderful, eh? Lol. I had one for the r n y and one for the hernia, just had the hernia one removed. They suck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

msgitsme 0 Posted July 23, 2012 Hi it took about 3 weeks for the soreness to go away. I'm a tummy sleeper so I was so glad when the soreness finally went away. Good luck to you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
