6 weeks post op - horrible pain - help please | |
I am six weeks post op and had my first fill 2 weeks ago. I have a 10cc band and have 4cc in at the moment. For the last week or so, I have been having the most intense pain near my diaphram/sternam. It gets so bad that it actually wakes me up from my sleep (hence why I am writing this at 3.15am). I also get it during the day, but it doesn't seem as intense - it's almost like a spasm feeling. It comes in waves - but the middle of the night seems to be the worst.
The pain was just so horrible that I thought my husband was going to have to take me to hospital. But now that I am up, the intensity of it has gone, now I just have a slight ache. In saying all this though the majority of the time that I don't have any pain at all.
I rang my surgeon on Tuesday, but I can't get into him for two weeks, and I just said to my husband that if this pain continues I want the band taken out.
Has anyone else had this type of pain at all? Any advise would be truly welcomed - I really don't want to have it removed - but the pain in the middle of the night is really horrible, and I didn't get it before my fill.
Thanks heaps - Rastis
