I had my 10 year old band removed on Friday for an upcoming sleeve in May. The surgeon told my parents there was a lot of scar tissue but nothing else wrong. When i had the band inserted, the pain from the port was pretty intense. Now with removal, the laproscopic site next to the port is giving me a lot of pain that feels like pinching...especially worse when getting up in the morning. Anyone experience that and for how long? Anything help it?
I've been walking a lot and went back to work yesterday where I have pretty much a desk job. I find that I feel a lot better walking or lying down. How long did you take pain meds? I'm trying to take just ibuprofen but still needing an oxy once a day. Not sure if i'm overdoing it or just not healing quick enough. Surgery in your early 30s versus 44 seems a bit different!
thanks!
