I am 7.5 weeks post op (RNY Open), and still experiencing some pain...

My incision is still tender to the touch. My blouses/shirts rubbing against it drives me crazy. I want to use MEderma but I think I sould wait until the scar is no longer irritable. <BR><BR> And, I still have pain inside in my new tummy area. This seems to be worse when I wear pants/jeans that are snug at the waist. Since I work at a desk, sitting makes the crease at my waist even more uncomfortable for my insides. <BR><BR> Am I just too sensitive or is this normal? Will it get better, I hope?
