mystery pain, need help.



Recommended Posts

I am six months post op. On my left side, beside my belly button, I.have this.regular pain where if something touches it or swiped it,it hurts. It also feels like sometimes there is a kick of pain. My doctor said it could be gas but I do not believe that since it is a pain when it is touched. When I press on it it is fine though so I'm just confused. Does anyone have a clue or idea of what this is and what's causing it? I didn't have this until about a month ago fyi.

My first thought was female pain. Maybe your ovaries.

It's not low enough for that and for sure a different type of pain. It frustrated and bothers me that I don't know what's causing it and I just hope it isn't something serious.

Sounds like nerve pain.

Or maybe residual scar tissue?

Is there anything to worry about then if it is nerve pain or scar tissue? And nerve pain seems like a good answer since it still is numb-like in that spot too.

My daughter had surgery on her leg a few years ago and has residual nerve pain. Nothing to worry about, just annoying. She scratches her leg and feels it in her toe! You can try massaging the area and that may help some.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
