4 Weeks out with sleeve pain



Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Hoping to get some advice on this pain I'm feeling.

I was sleeved on 9/29 and last night I woke up with a stabbing pain in my sleeve. I get one every 30-40 seconds, it lasts about 3-5 seconds a piece. It happens whether I've eaten, whether I'm hungry, whether I'm moving or relaxing. I haven't eaten anything that differs from my surgeons "suggested menu" at this point. I ate a scrambled egg white this morning and then a couple bites of grilled chicken for lunch. I've been sipping on Protein shakes all day long. I don't know if this is something that's normal, happens to everyone or if this could possibly be a late perforation. I also feel nauseous but I've been consistently nauseous since my surgery so I'm not sure if that's any indication of anything or not. Please help. Any advice would be great.

TIA.

Can you contact your team and ask their advice. It would put your mind at rest.

Hope you feel better soon :)

I'm not sure with it being Sunday. I guess I could give it a go.

Thank you!

Someone should be on call... that doesn't sound very normal ...I just got sleeved Monday and not having that kind of pain... every one is different of course but sounds like your medical team needs to hear about that just in case

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
