Stomach and torso aching 16 weeks post Laparotomy
Posted , 6 users are following.
I am sure its nothing to worry about and just a normal course of recovery.
I had been feeling back to normal around xmas after my Cyst removal by Laparotomy. But the last week I have been feeling drained and my stomach and torso has a constant dull ache.
The last few nights, when lying down for bed, a small sharp pain can be felt on my left side about an inch from my wound.
Advice from those who have had the same surgery would be appreciated.
Reckon this is just me recovering and maybe I have just over done it one day (I am in a Panto so do light dance 2 times a week)
I worry as this is how I felt before the surgery and being told I have Stage 1a cancer (gone)

I'm only 6 weeks post laparotomy also diagnosed as 1a. It sounds possible you could have pulled newly healing muscle. As the symptoms are similar to prior to your procedure I would definitely mention it to your surgeon...I was advised that any problems or concerns should be checked out to rule out reoccurrence. I'm no expert though just didn't want to read and ignore.
Hope all goes well

I an just a worrier. Been feeling off for a week now.
Cant think of what I have done to over do it, if that is the case. But I guess even minor dancing for my Panto might cause it.

Just thought id reply ..I am going into hospital this Thursaday for a complete hystorectomy due to severe endomitriosis and 2 re grown cysts I also had the Lap last year,they returned within weeks !!!
I have this awful dull ache pain in my hips constantly and somtimes in my back,pelvis I am on so much painkillers It would kill a baby elephant ... I have asked for another scan,but they wont do it.I have no clue as to why.But I do think its because they grew back so quickly and even bigger.I dont know if you suffer endo,but could it be a possibility ?
I have a question..You have mentioned cancer type 1a ? I dont understand this ..I have had a ca125 and it came back a little risen..But every time I get a blood test done (quite often) They do another ? Could you tell me about th e 1a as I have an awful feeling about me and all this pain I am in..Id just lkike a heads up b4 I go into hospital on Thursday XXXXX

A lot of the time, a raised CA125 is totally unrelated.
I was not in any pain prior, just very uncomfortable and achy.
You will soon learn all come Thursday when you go in. Good Luck
We are all different so it is hard to tell.
