skin pains
Lately, I've been hanging new curtains, but not doing any odd stretching or anything, cleaning off my porch, putting stuff away (finally) and yesterday, I noticed a very little twinge around my old GBS incision areas (one of them in particular). It kind of reminds me of the days when I had adhesions, but they're on the surface, not deep inside kind of pains, and I would think that I'm so far past scar tissue building, that I wonder if it's just my skin tightening up and doing it's thing. I can set here at my desk and all of a sudden, I'll feel that little twinge or feeling of tension. Not sure how to describe it. I'd like to think it's just my skin shrinking back to it's normal state?
Since surgery, July 22nd, I've lost 80 lbs and 112 in the past year.
Anyone else having these issues or slight pains, maybe feelings of skin tightening? Can you feel this happening or I wonder if it's something bad going on. Dang, I hope not, but I don't feel bad.... KWIM

I have this too. My doctor said it is normal for this to happen. It is like Pooh says scar tissue. She told me that it will go away. Mine is the one nearest to my naval that always "twinges". Sometimes I feel like it is "moving" .. sounds weird but I can feel it tighten around my incision.
I also get an occasional pain in my side which I think is brought on by my exercise. Working muscles that my body forgot it had. I think it's weird to put my hands on my hips and actually feel bones in there. I used to have so much padding that I forgot there was bones under all that! LOL

yep, that sounds similiar to what I've been experiencing too, but I've been really bad on exercising. All things considered, I still think I'm doing pretty good :-)
I suppose if I exercised. I might be able to get into those size 18 clothes and lower lol
and feel those bones I know are tucked in there someplace :-)
