[shay_87 0]

Hi im new to the forum.. a bit of background. I had lap band surgery on Friday, 4 days ago.. I'm having the normal incision pain but I'm have a lot of discomfort in my right hand side abdomen worse after water/soup ect . Im a bit concerned as a had a lot of nausea day after surgery and that caused me to try and vomit. I didn't bring anything up but it was very violent.. has anyone had the dame thing?? Id like anyone opinion and thoughts.. not seeing surgeon for 3 weeks ... Thanks

Does your doctor know of the nausea/vomiting? If not, give the office a call and tell them of the pain. Keep up with your pain meds, too. Most important is to keep hydrated, if the pain is stopping you from getting liquids down, call your doctor right away!

Thanks for the quick reply. I told the surgeon and nurses then i was in hospital of my nausea and they gave me something to stop it. The surgeon said it would have been from the morphine.. Im no longer naueous it just the discomfort on my right hand side that im concerned about.

Which side is your port on? That could be what the pains from. Mine is on the left and I still have a lot of discomfort and I'm two weeks out
