Stitch pain
RNY on 04/02/12
I am 14 days post op and still dealing with those stupid stitches! My dr warned us about this pain and said it was very common but I'm bummed its still bothering me two weeks later! I have read that often times people just wake up one day and the pain is gone. I'm hoping that day is soon for us!

I am with you on the pain. I am 5 days out. Today it was worse than before. My doc said it can happen as the body tries to heal. I hold my gut when I stand to try to minimize thepain.
Also, try using a pillow and hold against your body when getting up or sitting down, it has helped the pain. Let's see how long it last, but I hope it goes away.
