I have had terrible back/lung pain the past couple days. Im 23 days post op for the sleeve and I havent had 1 problem yet. Im just getting a little worried about what it can be. Maybe gas ? I can feel a pain when i breathe in ... I also was hanging pictures and working around the house earlier it could easily be a pulled back muscle. Any opinions or experiences ???

If it's from a pulled muscle, you should be able to locate it by pressing on your back. It'll feel like, "oh, there's THE SPOT". If you have no areas that ring a bell when you press on them, then you may want to go to an urgent care center. At the very least, find a way to keep an eye on your temperature and oxygen saturation level (you know, that machine that goes on your finger to measure how much oxygen is in your blood.. should be over 95%, if it's under 90, go to the ER).

Why can you not call until Monday? Your doctor doesn't have an after hours service?

No after hours service I know of. Think it was just a pulled muscle. I cant even really feel it today. Havent had a temp or anything and have felt fine. So will see what happens from here. Thanks Berry that Oxygen answer was exactly what I was looking for. I have one of those sensors on my phone. Now Ill have that knowledge and tool with me forever.
