I am in my third week post op and I am wondering if it is normal for my left incision to be still extremely painful. I know that it is the one they removed my stomach from and there are stitches on the inside muscle. I mean on a scale of 0-10. This is probably an 8 (pain wise) My incisions are all healed, good color.

I would call my doc about pain at 8/10 and 3 weeks out just to make sure this is normal, just in case it's not. Be on the safe side and check with them.

I am 3 weeks post op. I have no pain and I had a band removed and converted to a sleeve. My incisions are itchy at times. I think you should call your surgeons office and tell them whats going on.

My incisions pain was actually quite low for the most part, ( 2wks post op) but weird thing, yesterday I put on a real pair of jeans to go to the grocery store and when I changed that night, my incision tapes were all lose and had pulled off for the most part. Today I have this one little spot that really hurts and it wont' go away, almost feels like a lump underneath. Has this happened to anyone?

I do have a small one that feels like a lump underneath. I think it might be internal sutures.

I'm having the same issue. I was told that I probably stretched one of the stitches and once the stitches pop that I will feel better. Inpatiently awaiting that day

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
