I had surgery on the 13th of Nov. and I didn't have any abdominal pain. I did have some shoulder pain from the gas. Tanya

I had surgery on Nov 7 and I had no stomach pain at all, in fact I ask my surgeon "did he do anything on the inside" and his answer was "yes, no pain is a good thing"

I had the laproscopic gastric bypass surgery done July 11th and NEVER felt any pain from stiches or anything else! I did feel bloated afterwards which was uncomfortable for a brief time, but NEVER any pain! Relax...it's a wonderful process! I'm down 100lbs. now too! :O) Trish

Ok, I must be the freak here because I had internal pain not caused by gas for about 2 weeks. It may have been because they repaired a hernia and scraped away some scar tissue. I can say that it wasn't the insisions that hurt. The pain was not unbearable and by the third week I felt much better.

Your internal organs do not have the nerve endings the surface of our skin does. Our skin has it to warn us of danger to ourselves (generally extreme hot, extreme cold or some kind of trauma/injury). So if you have stitches or opening of some kind on the surface of the skin, you'll feel those a bit, and it might feel a little "weird" inside, but there shouldn't be any pain whatsoever. If there is, definitely contact your surgeon and tell them immediately.
