Hi everyone.  I am 3 and a half weeks post-op and I am still having alot of pain in the muscle on the right side of my tummy.  I know that they went through the muscle and that it will hurt a little longer but it is still really painful.  Did anyone else experience this after more than 3 weeks after surgery?  Guess I am just looking for reassurance that this is normal. :)  Thanks everyone. :)

Yes.  I am walking every day and sipping as we speak. :)  Walking hurts so it's difficult to speed up the pace but I'm trying.

 Is there any redness, heat or swelling aroung your incision?  Any chance of an infection?

I  would call your surgeons office to be on the safe side as I don't think it should be really painful at this point.

Please give us an update and I hope you feel better soon!

The incisions are ok, healed up nicely.  The pain is underneath, in the muscle.  It's just the last spot to feel better.  The right side has given me grief the whole time.  I think I will call tomorrow just to be on the safe side.  It just seems strange that it still hurts after all this time.  Thanks for advice everyone. :)
