krs026 9 Posted August 20, 2012 I am 20 or 21 days post op and my right side still hurts like muscularly around my ribs and sometimes under that incision... Any one else experience this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
susanfaye 162 Posted August 20, 2012 I'm 13 days out tomorrow and the nerve pain in the incision is brutal! I'm trying to hold out until my 2 wk appt on Tuesday, but man this is the worst pain I think I've ever had! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LorenaVaca 29 Posted August 20, 2012 I am 12 days post op and started feeling a pieecing pain on my right side as well but its not anywhede near my incision. Its almost as if i had a huge bruise in this spot and someone was pressing really hard in that area with their finger. The pain is probably two inches above and three inches away from my incision. It has bothered me all day to where i broke down and cried for fear that i may of pulled something internally on my sleeve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's how I feel but it starts right under the incision and goes around my back. Grrr.........I was doing so well! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LorenaVaca 29 Posted August 20, 2012 That's how I feel but it starts right under the incision and goes around my back. Grrr.........I was doing so well! Yes me too i felt like i was doing great considering the fact i struggled the first three days and had tl stay in the hospital but i can honestly say as far as much pain from the incision i havent had any. Its all been either gas(which is gone now) or lower back pain where i feel exhausted but now this pain has come along... Im glad to know that im not the only one feeling it and at that almost the exact amount of days out as you. I was so worried i maybe bent or turned wrong or lifted wrong. So i guess it has to be somewhat normal? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

THEROUX[/quote'] Gall bladder is good. I do take actigall twicw a day. I was told it is a little nerve damage and should subside.I was just fine until I got caught off guard with a huge sneeze. I pulled something I think. If I push the nerve in my back it does subside some. I have an appt Tuesday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If I push the nerve in my back it does subside some. I have an appt Tuesday. I saw the surgeon today. Since starting the preop diet I have lost 26lbs. Everything looks great. The right side pain is a pulled muscle and popped stitch caused by sneezing of all things! It is getting better but he says it will just take time. I was cleared for the treadmill and light weights so the gym will be my new friend! I started pureed foods today. I had tuna salad and cottage cheese. Mmmm! But I'M SOOOO STUFFED! It was delicious and I had no problems tolerating the heavier food. 1 CBT reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
