dlmacarthur 10 Posted August 2, 2015 Hi guys, I was sleeves on Wednesday AM and was feeling a whole ton better aside from some Constipation pain. I took an enema to get over that but now the main surgery site is incredibly tender and painful tonite. I can't tell if it's normal to still be hurting this much since I was up and about far more today or if I did something wrong and screwed something up. I don't have a fever or anything but I am terrified of what the issue may be. Anyone else dealt with pain for several days after? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Risabe 3 Posted August 2, 2015 Yes! I am up in the night right now with pain. I had my sleeve done Monday and I am not only sore on the laparo sites but my left hip is cramped up and I've still have a lot of gas pain. I just took a 2mg morphine to see if it will ease off. I wonder if mine has to do with the fact that am an insulin dependent diabetic (using a pump 5-plus years) and already had a lot of aches and pain to begin with. Or maybe I am just a wimp. This week has been tough but I feel as if I've come a long way. Risa Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elode 8,093 Posted August 2, 2015 No it's normal, I hurt more on day 3 than any. I got a stronger pain pill prescribed and by day 7 I was ok. Everyone's different but mine defiantly wasn't pain free, it hurt! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShrinkingPeach 1,291 Posted August 2, 2015 It is normal, you did just have major surgery after all. I had pain until day 3 and the more I got up and moved around as I was supposed to do the more I was tired and realized just how much I needed to recover. You will do fine, just work through it. Good luck!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
