Two weeks out with sore spots



Recommended Posts

Hi all, I'm two weeks post op and just recently have a tender belly. Not so much my incisions but more like center belly. Sore when I press. Only reasons why I'm concerned is because from day one I didn't have any discomfort. Probably just healing but is anyone else having this tenderness after two weeks?

Ya, I have an appt on Tuesday. I have a two year old wondering if its from him climbing up on me? Boys are no gentle lol. I have no issues with my liquids or eating the couple things I'm allowed so I'm thinking that's a good sign.

Thanks

Just remember that your body is still healing. Just because your top layer of skin looks good doesn't necessarily mean the other layers are done healing yet. The six week guideline is a reminder that those other parts aren't all healed up yet.

Your right!!! I'm probably making a big deal out of nothing but the healing process. Have to remember to take it easy. I tend to forget that with two babies at home ;-)

Thanks for the reminder!!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
