3 days post op and still in so much pain. Can't tell if I'm being a wuss since i see all of these other people on here saying they are just fine at this point. But I'm almost in tears every time I get up to go to the bathroom. Not sure what to do. The nurses in the hospital just blew me off as i felt like a stitch was being ripped out everytime i moved. Ugh!

Could it be gas pain?

Getting up and moving is the best thing to do.

Take your pain medicine don't wait till its out of control. Try to take as your doctor for a few days. Like if its every six hours then take it every six hours to stay on top of your pain. Make sure you take medicine so you can poop lol pain medicine can cause major Constipation.< /p>

No I'm sure its not. It's one of the openings that has bothered me since day one. Looks ok like not infected but killer whenever i move. Waaaaahhh lol

I know what u mean. My incision under my left breast is killing me. So I have been putting ice on it. That helped me out

What bothers me is at different angles the incision under the port one is indented at times. Like the muscle under was messed with.... Which I don't get why they have to even do that.

My lower left is indented too. I assume its from the manipulation of equipment in there

Mine too and that is where i hurt so bad! Has to be a muscle because it feels like I'm being ripped open whenever i sit or lay down. Hopefully the indent will go away and our whole stomach will look like a "6-pack" in a few months!!

Still after more than 3 weeks I am having the same excruciating pain in one of my incisions. The same spot I complained about in the hospital and no one seemed concerned. I was in the ER this past weekend for dehydration and pain. They took xrays and found nothing wrong...how can it be that every other incision, including the biggest one is almost healed and this one is still causing so much pain it's unbearable to functions. I'm on my 4th bottle of pain meds.
