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!!

Did you have open RNY? I had lap...incisions were closed w Dermabond glue, so no staples. Hope you feel better soon:)

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.

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

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
