6 week post op and bad pain on left side

[healthiermommy 7]

As anyone had this? The pain is not always there but when it hits it feels like I'm being stabbed under my ribs. Had CT, ultrasound and labs done all looked good. But has been three days and it really sucks. Any help would be amazing

I would call and speak with your surgeon. They would know better than us.

Sadly I have and no clear reason for the pain, just wanted to see if anyone had had this and got more info then me

Everyone is different. Still, it wouldn't hurt to call them and check. It could be gas, constipation...anything. Good luck to you and keep us informed.

I'm 5 weeks out and from time to time I experience the same pain you mention. When I looked into the forum to see if anyone else experienced the same problem I found a couple of people who had a hernia repair along with the sleeve that had this same pain. And ironically my doctor performed a hiatal hernia repair on me as well.

I would try some gas x and see if it moves. Gas pains can be scary. Did u have an IVC filter placed before surgery to prevent blood clots? Not trying to scare you but its something I would inquire about with the surgeon. Wishing u the best.

Hello Healthiermommy!

Has the pain gone away? Have you found out what it was, I have exactly the same and was wondering.It would be very helpful to know how yours has been resolved. Many thanks

My pain has gone away. Doctor said that I did to much working out and needed to do less rough activity so I have switched to Water aerobics and so far no pain!
