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.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
