Rt abdomen sore/ tender

[Fars 34]

About 2 weeks post gastric sleeve and 2/3 days back feel sore/ heaviness in middle right abdomen - doc says it’s the inner sleeves healing but wonder why it developed 2-3 days before and not after surgery
Anyone has similar experience?

Me too, mine at day 7-9, that time my anesthesia just fully metabolize in my body

This is a major test of faith I guess - not succumbing to the what if while being realistic

mine settled on rest. Fingers crossed for complete smooth recovery

Post Gastric Bypass RNY, I had something similar. Kind of a tight, sore thickness / heavy-feeling strip down my right abdomen. It took about a week for me to feel it. My care team also said it was basically healing pains, but also nerves & pain receptors coming back online after the 'physical trauma' of surgery. Definitely keep an eye on it to see if it changes or if you get other symptoms, but it's very likely to be your insides doing their job healing.

(Honestly, if I overdo stretching/twisting even today at 12 weeks, I feel it in the same area -- just a lot better now)

Mine isn’t constant - I also feel very tired on exertion but mainly my shoulders if that makes any sense

petrified about straining when going to the loo for inner stitches
