Whitney Marie shared an unexpected side effect that both she and her sister Abby experienced after their gastric sleeve surgery. According to her TikTok account, sitting down isn't as easy as it used to be post-surgery, and the prominence of the hip bone leads to severe pain. As a result, her sister had to request a special chair to be able to sit comfortably.
Here are the details...
In a post on her TikTok account, she expressed how sitting had become a struggle for her after surgery. 'This needs to be talked about,' she said.
Abby's only wish, her sister, was to purchase a special car seat for comfortable seating. According to Whitney, sitting is no longer as easy as it used to be, since she is now merely skin and bones; even when lying down, her bones touch the surface beneath, causing pain.
Users have pointed out that sitting on hard chairs is no longer feasible. One user even shared a harrowing experience of falling and injuring their hip, which left them unable to walk for days.
