Fat Pain
This is a weird one, that happens to me from time to time over the last year. Do you get pain or strange feelings from your fat? I have always had more fat around my belly / trunk area. Since having WLS, I find from time to time, I get pain in it, as if the fat is being pulled??? At the moment it is really painful, particularly around the sides. I also have back pain which I think is caused by the weight of the fat that hangs now rather than being solid and attached!!
This is all speculation as I have no clue as to what's going on in there, but that's what it feels like!! It feels like the fat is no longer attached to me and just hanging held in by my skin.
Can any one relate to this or am I just weird??? (hee hee, yes, yes, I know I'm weird anyway, in other ways...but I am British so can be excentric!!!)
ok, first and foremost i'd go to your doctor so he can start documenting this, maybe you can get the plastics covered. The pains in your side sound like what i had when i was pregnant, round ligament pain, it's when there is too much pressure (could be from your hanging fat) on that part of the body! I can totally relate, but then i'm an "odd" bird anyway. Hugs, ANDI
I had that pain before.. the skin was hanging so much it would pull. Now that I lost more weight the skin has no real fat attached to it so it doesnt bother me anymore. Yes it is very uncomfortable though.. Yes go to the doc it may help you get your plastics approved. Dont know what to tell you to do about it..i just dealt with it when I had the pain. Doc said the same thing...
