Pain....1/25/12

Jan 25, 2012

 It has been 21 days since my surgery and I am doing pretty good as far as the eating is going.  I don't feel hungry, but I eat because I have to.  I don't feel full either.  I eat a full 6oz yogurt no problem.  I try to limit my servings to 1/4-1/2c.  I am worried the surgeon made my pouch too big.  
My hernia pain has finally subsided, but now I have a new pain.  About 1-2in below my lower right incision and 2-3in to the right of my belly button.  It hurts all of the time.  Not even the vicoden dulls the pain.  I have an appt with the surgeon tomorrow for it.  There is no lump so I don't think it is another hernia.  I spoke with the P.A. on call the other night and she said it could be fluid build up under my muscle and to try the heating pad.  But the heating pad made it hurt worse.  I am at a loss.  
Some good news is that I am finally starting to lose weight.  About a pound a day.  Although I can not tell by looking at me.  How long does it take to visually tell?  I have lost 31lbs from my highest weight, 17 from my surgery day.  Not bad I guess.
