I was banded in August of 2010 and have lost 75lbs. For the last 3 months I have not lost any weight but my body seems to be reshaping it's self as some of my close are getting loose...so I really wasn't worried at first. I've had slight pain at the port site before and the gas pains affter surgry.
This pain is different it started a week ago: I am haveing pain in the upper left side of my stomache and somewhat on the side under my arm pit as well. Its a cramping pain sometimes and others a slight burning pain it comes and goes. I will get it after eating sometimes but not always I can have a peice of pinapple and I'm fine today but tomorrow it's not ok. It usually last 15-20 min. I called my Lap Band doctor and was told it didn't sound like a lap band problem and to call my family doctor I saw her and was told it was most likely constipation...I've been doing what she said for the last two days and takeing the medication but I don't seem to be having any relief from the pain even thought the medication is makeing me use the ladies room as it were. I guess I'm just worrying (I tend to) but has anyone else had this type of pain before.
