Side pain

I got my lap band on March 7th and am experiencing left side pain which worsens when I eat. Could the band have slipped already?? This is the 2nd night that it's bad but not like last night. I'm sitting with a heating pad. Hoping for some info. if anyone out there has had the same thing. Perplexed and in pain!

Hello, I remember I had side pain a few times after getting my band. I think I was still swollen from surgery maybe. It went away. I think I was eating a little too much and maybe drinking too much. I don't know, but that side pain did leave.

I had that left side pain for about 3 weeks after surgery. Mine would not go away. I had to be careful how I sat, how fast I got up, and could not make any sudden movements. The pain was so severe that I slept sitting in the couch for 2 weeks. I had a hernia removed after surgery, or so they say, so not sure if that had anything to do with it. I was not able to return to work a week later, was actually off for 3 weeks.

I think everyone is different. The pain will go away, but it takes time. I am two months post op and I dont feel any pain, not even when I get my fills. I am able to sleep on my tummy and toss and turn and no pain.

Hang in there. I am sure that it will go away. But if it does not, talk to your doctor about it.
