babe134 0 Posted October 15, 2008 I asked my surgeon today about lifting and eercise after surgery and he said you cant hurt anything unless you hit your port very har like falling he said lifting may make you sore but wouldnt hurt anythin and advised me to be back in the gym after a week....................soo I would say if it doesnt cause discomfort it should be ok .

pattygreen 5 Posted October 15, 2008 That depends on how heavy the ball is. You had your lower stomach stitched to your upper stmach, and the p[ort stitched to your inside wall, you wouldn't want to tear those stitches. I would wait 4-6 weeks. When in doubt, throw it out! It's just not worth all you've invested. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
