Default 3 weeks later and I still have pain

Hey everyone- Just wondering if any recalls still having some pain and discomfort 3 weeks after their surgery. I still have a little pain sitting and standing and bending over. Anyone experience this? Coughing is accompanied by terrible pain. I dont know if this is normal. Any advice or info would be highly appreciated! Thanks all!

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Are you kidding? I needed help on and off the toilet for the 1st 2 weeks and didn't even feel comfortable being alone for the 1st 3 weeks. You might not see what was cut and moved around but it's there. You had major surgery and are a human being. Give yourself time to heal and take it easy.
Good luck and Congratulations.

This pain is probably cause Im crazy and went back to work after 2 weeks.... Might have been a little premature. Anyway, thanks for the info ladies. Nice to know its common. Thanks so much!

Yes, I had the pain anytime I had to sit upright for awhile, and was soo tired for the first 6 weeks! Walking helps with getting some strength back, I was only able to walk for 10 min. at first but it helped.

I don't think I even felt real again until at least a month out....this will pass....be careful and don't over do...you are still doing LOTS of healing!

I had pain too, but some of mine was caused by gas. You might want to check with your doc and see what he recommends for gas pains. My surgeon recommended phazyme, it is an over the counter med.

Well i don't have "pain" but every once in a while i get "twinges" here and there. Also, when i wear my bra after a few hours it is very uncomfortable because it sits on 2 of my "cuts".
