gottagonow 82 Posted June 2, 2014 My stomach was definitely extended post-op. I could tell by my shirts. However, it did not last 7 weeks. it lasted about 7 days or so. Did you try anything new to your diet that may have contributed? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ljf0204 6 Posted June 2, 2014 Almost 3 weeks post op and my belly looks and is very bloated. The right side incision actually seems more tender. Feels like more gas has built up. My follow up appointment is tomorrow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tammylb 174 Posted June 2, 2014 Took mine 4 1/2 week for the swelling to go down and the pain to go away . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AZUL 1 Posted June 2, 2014 I am exactly ONE week post op. My Dr. talked to me about the swelling of the abdominal tissues due to the surgery´s trauma on the stomach. If it hurts, it may be something different... I am happy, WEIGHT IN.... I did and the larger belly is unlikely more extra pounds Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew0929 1,101 Posted June 2, 2014 Anyone have a day where they can't eat much. Right side abdomen bloated and very uncomfortable like undigested food stuck. It's making me miserable. Anyone ever have that uncomfortable right side bloated feeling? I'm 5.5 months out and continue to experience bloating and discomfort on right side. After several doctor visits (Including GI) and one trip to ER determined its due to ongoing issues with Constipation.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
