Jennie Gibson 0 Posted April 15, 2012 I'm 7 days post op (had my surgery Monday). I orginally went to my doctor because I needed my gallbladder removed. I decided since it would be the same incisions I should get the band I'd been thinking about getting. I have a few questions. I'm having pain in the middle, right side of my back and what feels like pressure that wraps around from that to the center of my stomach. Is this normal post op pain? What might it be? Is it from my gallbladder. I see my doctor Tuesday and will ask him but I'm curious about what it could possibly be. I have noticed the pressure is also in my chest. I have eaten a very small amout of tun fish and yesterday I had a half of egg (made into egg salad). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jennifer1 180 Posted April 15, 2012 I am glad you will see your doc soon as since you had two surgeries no one here can tell where the pain is coming from...as far as eating..I'm surprised your eating softfood so soon...your band may not be ready to handle that just yet...does your doc have a food progression for you to follow?
