I had surgery on Friday 3/23 and for the last 2 days I have had awful pain on my left side and back area. Any clue what this might be? I don't think it's gas because I think I have figured out what that feels like and this is different.

It could be referred pain form the gas or it could be from the way that you were lying on the table or maybe they had to move things around a bit to get the band in. Take the meds your Dr has prescribed and if it doesn't get better then he/she is the person to speak to.

Thanks for the suggestion. I had to stop taking the pain med because I'm back at work and taking a nap every couple hours isn't an option anymore lol. I took a tylenol and that worked. If feels like muscle pain I just can't figure out the cause?

I'm having the same issue and I was banded on the 23rd. I guess it's just gas? My body tenses up super hard when I try to pass gas through my mouth or bottom. I'm still having trouble burping and I feel hungry constantly but I haven't added the Protein Drink yet but I'm doing one tonight so I'm hoping that will help but I'm laying in bed as I type this with horrible pains in my back and side

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
