Is there anyone out there who was still hurting at 11-12 weeks? I have asked the dr many times, and he says it is from all the pulling etc. during surgery, but he hasnt taken any xrays or anything. I cant do anything that pulls on my stomach... like, exersizes, pulling down my SUV hatch, lifting.. even sneezing still hurts. Should I just wait it out, or insist on tests?

Pamela....I have no idea why every little thing seems to throw be for a loop, I wasnt like this before surgery.

I am only 3.5 weeks post-op and have NO PAIN at all! I do not even attemp to lift anything over 10 lbs.

I still hurt when I exert my ab muscles. I have a physical job and work out with a trainer.

Kelly says I am o.k. to do this stuff, but I am going to ask Dr. soon, cause I am getting an intense burning along the incision line.

I'm so sorry! Pain is the pits, it makes everything bad.
Is it your PCP you've asked or your surgeon? My PCP doesn't seem knowledgeable, so I ask my surgeon!

I feel for you, however I'm 3 weeks post op today and have yet to feel any pain at all. I started lifting at the gym again a week ago and no pain. I've even started doing ab excercises and no pain. I would definately press the issue with you doctor because your pain seems very unusual from my experience and others that I know have had WLS.
