Filmfairie 0 Posted July 13, 2010 I was banded on the 28th and i have been feeling less and less pain with each day that passes.... today i went back to work and idk if it was because i was sitting straight for a long time but i now have a pain... or discomfort on the right hand side of my abdomen below my rib cage (almost like when your spleen hurts). Is this common? Should I be worried? :grouphug: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bandmom 0 Posted July 13, 2010 I had that on my left side, and it was close to an incision. Doctor said it was scar tissue, and sure enough after a few days of moving around it went away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kcarny 0 Posted July 13, 2010 I had discomfort from sitting straight up at work the first couple days. Get up and walk around a bit. It'll help. Also, I made the biggest mistake of wearing jeans. Elastic is a good friend while your belly is healing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

westminster 0 Posted July 13, 2010 Hi, I am 4 weeks + 1 day and my discomfort and pain on my left side while sitting finally stopped on this past weekend. I couldn't drive, couldn't sit at my desk for more than a few minutes without having to standup. Also would have to gave up my seat on public transit after 10 minutes because of the pain. Had to cancel work meetings because I knew there was no way I could sit for long. I was worried and knew it wasn't normal and was to make an appointment with surgeon to discuss. Thank goodness it's gone now and I feel so much better because of this. I even postponed my first fill by 2 weeks because of this, I thought there was no way I was adding any more stress to my body until this sorts it self. Hope it passes for you too.
