Band to Sleeve Revision Pain Question

I had my band removed about 7 weeks ago and my revision 3 weeks ago. I am still having significant pain in my side and especially if I bend over at all (unloading the dryer is very difficult). Anyone else experience this so far out. The pain was so bad last night it kept me awake (even after taking my prescription pain meds). Thanks. 

I didn't have band removal, but I had the sleeve surgery on April 8, 2013 and I still have some tenderness. but it is getting better. This was major surgery and it takes time to get back to 100%. Take care of yourself and make sure you get your water and protein, vitamins.

I experienced a lot of pain after my band removal and it lingered for at least 2 months. My dr said that it was due to all of the adhesions that the band caused. I did have to wait 6 months between band removal and vsg (that's my dr's policy). Hope it feels better soon...take it easy. Definitely ask you dr during your next visit.

I had my band removed 4.5 months before being sleeved.  The band removal was worse than the sleeve.  I would be guessing that your pain in the side is from the band removal.  I had tons of scare tissue around the port.  It seems the closer the revision to removal the harder many have recovering.

Did they put in a drain after your revision?  Mine does for all sleeves but I like many of the revisions went home with my drain still in.  If you didn't have a drain the fluid would be in there until your body reabsorbs it.  If it doesn't get better they may need to check for a Sonoma/abscess.  Hopefully all is well.

I had my band removed at the same time as having my sleeve done.  If you're having pain on the right side it could be the incisions but also from the liver..sometimes it can get a little bruised from when they need to lift it up so they can see what they're doing.  it will abate...I'm still having some pain there, but not enough to keep me awake.  Feel better  >

Where was your port?  Is the pain near where it was?  Could be scar tissue.  I revised almost a year ago and I still get twinges here and there from the scar tissue where my port was.  Just another great reminder of how wonderful life with the band was.
