sassy&happy 0 Posted June 7, 2006 Tidge--I think I had pain similar to what you are experiencing. I am 4 wks post op. I experienced pain like that immediately following surgery and did up until last week as well. I said it felt like the pain/cramp you get after swimming. I had my gallbladder removed a month prior to my banding so my surgeon told me it was probably pain from the first surgery and nothing to worry about. Mine was so bad that I could not sleep at night without rolling a pillow up to put under my side. I would take my pain meds to help out with it and it seems to be better now but I noticed it again after I exercised yesterday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marimaru 7 Posted June 7, 2006 If I had doctors throwing me around like that I'd probably say to one of them that they should call the other so that they could figure out what was wrong with me! Have you tried Gas X? There are other gas products out there as well, but it might help. Alternately, if you haven't had a bowel movement, you might try something to get you 'moving along'.
