new pain / discomfort

mommytoethan · July 11, 2010

i'm only a few days away from being a month out.

i am able to eat and drink without any problems. i've been doing quite well since surgery and have been pain free since about a week after surgery. until now.

i've had a normal day.... it's been like any other day for me. i did do some house cleaning, but nothing to major and i took breaks when i felt like i was getting to tired since i know my body is still healing. i finished my house cleaning about 4 hrs ago.

however, i just ate a piece of small cheese and about 2-3 mins later, i started to feel this "new" pain. it's on my right side, right under my right breast at the incision site.

i dont think that it's the food no agreeing with me - i know that feeling and it's not it. i'm not sure what this is. i'm not in enough pain to call my doctor or go to the ER, but it's uncomfortable.

does anyone have an idea of what this could be? i just find it strange that it started within a few mins of eating something small. the piece of cheese was less than 1 oz.

Gallbladder??? Any food with any fair amount of fat in it triggers that same type of pain in me.

i guess i'm just going to chalk it up to a muscle pain since it's gone now. once i sat down and relaxed a bit, it went away. i was worried that it had something to do with eating, but i've eaten dinner since then and it the pain never returned.

thanks for your input though....gallbladder was one of my thoughts too.
