Pain sitting up (but really bad)

Hi girls just wondered if I could ask, Im in ALOT of pain when I sit up in the morning. (Im propped up on pillows) its like in the middle of my chest and its like a stabbing pain but really bad and lasts upto 2mins. When Im up Im just fine! I asked my nurse and she said not to worry, has anyone else had this? Im 9days post op and had 240 unders 🙂 Thanks x

Hey hun I’m 3 days post op and I get this too its really painful but only lasts a few minutes x

So do you think its normal?

I had it for my first three weeks.

It’s just you sit up and pull on the muscles that have been all chopped up and messed around with, they’ve had a snooze and are just getting comfy and then you move which pulls them again. Just need to put up with it I think. I did, and it went eventually, I was suffering for say 18-20 days.

I had it for the first 2 weeks or so…was sooo glad when it stopped! 🙂 xx

Ok thanks so much for the replies! I’ll stop worrying now! x
