I had surgery on June 30 and have not experienced any pain like that at all. Have you had any prior abdominal surgeries that could be contributing to this? If not, call your Doc. Better to be safe about it.

Best wishes and keep us posted!

I had something similar, and I was told it was a non issue if there was no fever. But I did contact my Dr. I paid them to be on call, so I did. If it continues, I would call them for self assurance!

Oh dear God did I have pain!!! I was fine immediately after my surgery then at day 9 I had this incredible burning pain every time I would sit or stand, it drove me crazy!!! Today I am 14 days post op and I have to tell you that the burning pain is nearly gone, its just a dull ache now!!!

The incision to the right of my bellybutton was the worst one... It bled after surgery and when the doctor pulled off the steri strips. The doctor said it looks like the internal stitches pulled out on that incision. It has also been the longest to heal and looks worse than the rest of them (which have completely healed). I think that must be the site where the doctor did the most work... like some of the other sites just hold cameras and lights and that one is the one they go in and out of the most.

I agree -- call the doctor -- but you might just have one spot hat stays worse than the others.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
