When do you feel no pain



Recommended Posts

Do you mean internally (stomach) or externally (incisions)? For me, my incision pain was completely gone at 3 weeks. Internally, I still feel pain at almost 9 weeks out. It definitely happens less but it's still there if I think too fast or eat certain things. I know it's hard but be patient. It'll get better soon!

What kind of pain? I am 3.5 mths out and didn't have pain other than muscle near biggest incision and that wasn't more than 6 days or so. You should not be having pain when eating or drinking.

I was in the hospital 8 hours and sent home with pain pills. I took one. I had no pain, I drove the next day, walked a mall in four days. I was 67. Please call your doctor, and trust your gut instinct. I also had a hernia repair.

It's normal. I'm four weeks out and still have internal pain ( large incision). It's less and less but I can't lift a laundry basket or my 3 yr old yet without feeling a sore dull aching pain. Not sharp like after surgery give about 6 weeks I have been tomd

I kind of had the same question. I'm a little over a week post op. I am not feeling any pain with incisions or anything but just this nagging pain in my abdomen. Does anyone experience this pain or know what it could be?

I also have been dealing with a pulling /burning pain in my lower left abdomen. No pain near incisions those are fine. I'm 2 weeks post open and that's the only thing holding me back.

I am going on 5 weeks post op and I would say that between 3 and 4 weeks I no longer felt any discomfort, including soreness. Hang in there! Honestly, unless I see my incision marks, I feel so "normal" again, it seems hard to believe I even had the surgery (besides getting full easier, which is a good thing, of course!).

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
