Pain gone after weird feeling...is this normal?



Recommended Posts

So Ive Had pain in the right side where the stomac was taken out. I know its normal because of the muscle. It was getting better then felt worse the past couple days. Today I was bending to put my dogs leash on and fwlt the weird crunch feeling on that side a quick pain and now the pain is a lot less. What the heck is that about?

I haven't experienced that yet, but one of my friends who had this done told me that happened to her. I think it's a thing, like the 3 week stall. Happens to a lot of folks.

scar tissue builds up around all the incisions and that large one also has perm. stitches so it could have been that tissue was released from the pressure of bending over. I have small ball of scar tissue building under my large cut but surgeon addressed it a week out and said worse before better and movement helps break it up. hope this helps

I had the same thing happen! Hallelujah, I wasn't crazy! At exactly week 4 (I had a terrible day the day prior) I was being careful getting ready in the morning then I bent down suddenly because I dropped my phone and then I heard like a snap or something with a slight pain and thought "oh great, another terrible day in store" but I ended up working a full day with zero pain... I don't know what it was other than it was a weird feeling and I hoped I didn't hurt myself too bad but it was a blessing. Since that day I've been pain free.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
