I had my op 30/5/16, i have the exact same pain, cant sleep on my side, first night at home i tried to get out of bed on my own and nearly passed out from the pain. Am too scared to cough or heaven forbid, sneeze! Called my surgeon and yes its the side where they pull the stomach out of and the incision is a little larger and therefore there is internal stitching. Am 1 week post op and its getting better each day, slowly but surely. Take it easy.
