dennisdj 25 Posted July 12, 2017 Left hospital on Tuesday with no pain but I think I over did it walking too much and was in bed the rest of the day. Hope it gets better. How long does pain last? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Denisecc 4 Posted July 12, 2017 I know for myself I was sore for about 2 weeks, I did as little as possible. Rest give your body time to heal[emoji4] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shericrazylady 113 Posted July 12, 2017 I really didn't have pain didn't even take the pain meds was just uncomfortable because I didn't know how to move thinking I would damage my stomach hahahaha Sent from my A1601 using BariatricPal mobile app 2 Supernovae and blondie66 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AdorableAsian34 5 Posted July 13, 2017 i walked around five or miles a day i traveled with mine and the walking did my body a world of good. i had no pain after the first day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blondie66 271 Posted July 13, 2017 Didn't have pain when got home after 4 days at hospital post surgery...just walk as much as u can it takes awhile to build up strength. I started with like 10 minutes a few times a day and then worked up slowly to an hour. Walking is a great healer but don't push yourself...baby steps. Make sure you get your Protein and Vitamins daily. 1 Missy161 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AdorableAsian34 5 Posted July 18, 2017 i swam three weeks after and was in the gym as soon as i was cleared. i think its because of the type of job i have im used to pushing myself or maybe i got lucky! 1 blondie66 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LaLa Ladybug 57 Posted July 18, 2017 Hi Dennis, my surgery was Thursday & I was released Saturday. Out of curiosity, do you still have a drain pouch? Where is your pain? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Where is your pain?Hey just seeing this sorry for not responding sooner. I didn't have a drain pouch. I had a little pain the day I came out but I think I just over did it walking.
