What about a local Gastro- Doc? Or even your PCP?

Always trust your gut instinct if you believe something terrible has happened, call your surgeon. We are not medical experts. You might have popped a stitch which can hurt like heck. I remember lifting something about 2 weeks post op, and had terrible pain, and rested a couple days. Hernia repairs are pretty common with the sleeve. Best wishes and feel better!
