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.

      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.
