I get a weird pain too! Starting on my right side under my ribs. It sounds crazy but I feel like my ribs are trying to explode out of my body! I emailed my dr. and he said it was probably a reaction to eating ham. I have still had the pain for about 6 weeks and have not eaten ham since. I went to my family dr. and he scheduled an ultrasound to check my gallbladder. My blood pressure was 100/53. Sounds low to me, but they didn't say anything. I also feel a pain between my chest like right on the breast bone. it feels like I slept in a strange position, but I haven't. So strange. I don't want it to be gallbladder issues. The thought of a surgeon messing around near my band makes me uncomfortable!:confused2:
