7 weeks post op - odd slight pain left side of abdomen



Recommended Posts

I did have some foods yesterday that I don't normally eat - but everything felt fine - I chewed everything really well and felt fine yesterday (I did not overeat). Woke up this morning with an odd slight pain, like a pin-prick in my upper left abdomen. It lasts about a second and happens every minute or two. It doesn't seem to be brought on by eating or drinking. My stomach feels fine. I held off on eating until 11:30 this morning. I feel fine otherwise, no fever, no headache just this annoying pin-prick every minute or two.

One little flub I made yesterday was that I had a sip of wine without thinking about it and then decided that wasn't a good idea - however, it didn't burn or feel bad in my tummy and literally it was a tiny sip.

Anyone else have an odd pain like this 2 months out?

I'm going to give it a day or 2 to see what happens before I call my surgeon (if it gets worse I'll call, but I don't think it's necessary now - this may not even have anything to do with my stomach or the surgery).

I'm also 7 weeks post op ... can't give you advice on the pain but I'm sure it wouldn't be caused by the wine. I had a glass yesterday (cleared by my NUT). No problems for me :)

I am sorry, I can't say I have had such a pain and hopefully this goes away or gets resolved quickly for you :)

Keep us posted!

I remember having different pains here and there around that time period. I think your right just call your Dr. if it persists just to check in.

Most likely, the pain is from the stitches they put into your abdominal muscles. Once you start feeling better and moving around more, you'll pull them causing pain. Once they dissolve (in about another week or two) you should be just fine. Just try to be a bit careful with moving around too much and don't lift anything heavy!

I had the same pain after my sleeve 7 months ago. Bariatric team said was probably due to the work in the abdominal cavity. I noticed the most when I did abdominal exercises for about 2-3 months out (this was my second surgery within 3 months though). I now only notice now if I have stayed out the gym for a few days and still only ab exercises. Don't worry it will get better. But if are concerned don't be afraid to contact your Bariatric team. They are the experts.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
