Ms. McCray2009 34 Posted December 30, 2016 Yeah, it will hurt for about 4 days then things start to feel better Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
White Sale 339 Posted December 30, 2016 Congrats, @@morningangel79! I'm 8 days post-op. My tissue removal port is by far the most tender, but worlds away from how it felt a few days ago. Word of advice: do NOT twist your abdomen for several days. I made this mistake getting out of the car on the trip home. It's a natural movement to swivel your feet out of the car door - but YIKES that hurt soooo bad. Hope you're looking forward to your journey, these first couple weeks may not be easy, though!

suzzzzz 1,005 Posted December 30, 2016 That is going to hurt for a week or more but it does get more tolerable. Just move slowly when you sit or stand or get out of bed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

morningangel79 38 Posted December 30, 2016 Thanks everyone.... Im an anxious person just have to have assurance that what i feel is normal... Also does anyone still have pain when drinking Water?...

Sent from my LG-H811 using the BariatricPal App Just keep sipping...that is a priority for you right now...to stay hydrated. Sucking on ice might help too. Water can be hard to get down at first. Take small sips and I found taking a deep breath can sometimes relieve that stuck feeling. Mixing a little bit of juice in water made drinking a lot easier for me. What you are going through its normal. Every day will get better. Hang in there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
