Okay so I'm a bit of a worrier, but I'm concerned. I'm 6 days post op and all my pain is gone. I went to sit up like normal and I felt what I can only describe as a POP in my middle-lower stomach (a couple inches to the left of my belly button, but an inch lower). It's not near any of my incisions and its way too low to be my pouch. I know I'm probably over thinking things but is that something after surgery?? Did I somehow pop a staple by accident??? Or is it just something random. There was no pain or anything like that (except my anxiety levels rising, LOL)

Hmm I am 8 days out... Still have pain not as much but I do... Whenever I get up I feel my insides are "rearranging" or going in place or some thing lol weird but doesn't really bother me. If you don't have pain I don't think you should worry about it.

I was parried today because two of my incisions have redness next to them and feels like burning up, and had a mild grade fever, called the dr and they were not too concerned, said most likely it's irritation from steristrips so we will see tomorrow.

I wouldn't worry too much if you don't feel pain, but why not call your surgeon's office it and run it by them to put your mind at rest?

      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.
