Side Pain that is puzzeling?!?



Recommended Posts

I have had this horrible pain in my side everytime I become active...not just excercise but when I walk or anything. I went to the Doc for that...and they found the bladder infection and are sending me to get ultrasounds on Monday. They don't think the pain in my side is related to the bladder infection. I have had my appendix removed, so I am clueless? Any ideas anyone? The pain feels just like stabbing pains that you get when you are running or something and you get side cramps. HOWEVER...we all know I am not running when I get them!! LOL! Anyone ever heard of anything like this?<!-- / message --><!-- sig -->__________________

Stacey, is it on your port side? I know my port side gets sore with exercise, etc, but it's not a stabbing pain or a side cramps pain, it's just a soreness. What about gall baldder?

I have the same exact thing right now. It's hard for me to take a deep breath. I'm only a week out from surgery, so I was hoping it would go away. I've had alot of pain since surgery and it seems like I'm the only one.

The pain has been going on for like 2 weeks. I have been banded since feb. 20th. It is on my lower side, my port is high under my ribs. It keeps getting worse it seems like. Is your gallblader on that side?

You know, come to think of it, this pain only started Tuesday. I had swallowed a piece of gum that day, so i was sure it had something to do with that, but it still hurts really bad even today.

That's a very good question and something I never thought about. I'll try to look it up. My pain is on left side (low) also.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
