4 1/2 months post op and still sore
I am a little concerned and frustrated with the fact that 4 1/2 months out I still have soreness, fatigue, pain during intercourse, and swelly belly when I push it. My doctor just says thats unusual and looks at me like I'm crazy or being a baby or something. Does this sound right to anyone? I know I'm not making this up or milking it for attention. Thanks.

I don't think you have any reason to be concerned. After 4 months if you haven't had pain that was so bad that you needed to call the dr. you are probably fine. This really takes a long time to heal from.
I am five months post op and usually a real work horse when it comes to gardening. Yesterday I needed to take a break every 15 mins. Very depressing!
As far as pain, my insiscion (sp.) is still both numb and yet feels pain if I touch it a certain way to apply cream. And, intercourse at times can be uncomfortable.
Give yourself a year to return to your old "self" with a few benefits of course At your 6 month post op check tell your doctor your concerns He/She may ease your mind or have suggestions for relief.
Take Care.

I am in the same place and very concerned. My surgery was in October and still have swelling to the point that I cant bend down to pick up anything. the incision was coming back to the feeling point , but now is numb again.
I am going to try to see my GP next week, I dont think my Gyne will do anything about it only say it is normal.
I dont feel normal and wonder if I ever will!
