[flipper72 36]

Anyone experience this? I'm 2 weeks post op...my sterile strip stitch thingys have fallen off and I've been wearing reg clothes etc where the waistline is right at the main incision. I've been getting these very sharps pains. ...not constantly...but when I move a certain way....feels like something is poking me from the inside and it HURTS....like...stop me in my tracks...hurts. anyone experience this?

If you feel it getting worse go to the ER..,they will have to at least do a CT scan..,.,worried about leakage..,don't be afraid to just go!

I have been experiencing pain right at and below the main incision point on my left stomach area .. I saw my surgeon and she said its normal and can take 6 weeks to heal.. That is where the biggest suture was and where they removed your excess stomach.. I was actually feeling great but strained it a week ago twisting in bed to open a window ... I am almost three weeks post op

I have been working on using all other body parts and muscles when getting up and bending over and not putting any strain on that area .. Tylenol is helping I don't want to go back on my codeine as it makes me sick ..
