I will be following this! I am 8 days post op and still having pain every time I drink something. Wondering if it is normal and when it will go away! I hope that your pain subsides quickly and you are able to travel for momma's day! And congratulations!

I am 3 weeks out and I still have super sharp pain still on my left side. It's tough to bend over still.

I have tried not to overdo but when I feel okay I have been doing things. It's hard not to when I have a one year old. I don't know if I'm sabotaging myself.

Took me a good 4 weeks for the incision pain to go away. The largest incision was on the left side and it hurt a lot. The others not so much.

Wow, I must be very lucky. I am 6 days out right now and have no pain at all. My only complaint is that my navel is a little tender.

I am 3 weeks post-op. I was off pain meds four days out. One week post-op I was back on pain meds. I have this terrible burning, tearing pain to the left of my belly button. It has had me in tears off and on, knocks the wind right out of me... two trips to the office--no answers. Just wait a month and tough it out. The skin is numb and the pain is below. I am thinking it is nerve damage.

      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.
