I was banded 8/3. I was doing great, but now I am having alot of pain on my left side from the bottom of my rib to one of my incisions. I thing it is where the port is. I feel a huge bulge under it. I am trying to figure out if I should call my doctor or stick it out longer. I have not had a bowel movement in one week. Anybody with the same pain? Any suggestions. I ate a small piece of corn on the cob. I chewed it well when I did. If something was blocked would I be vommiting? HELP!!!!!!! Maybe I'm just a wimp.
