Does anyone know what this pain could be?



Recommended Posts

Hi, I'm 3 weeks post op and doing great, ate to much egg the other day and felt like a I had a stitch :guess (like, you get from to much exercise) in my tummy area for while but later on felt great. 2 days later went to bed and when I got up i felt like I had a stitch sentation near my tummy button area left hand side near one of my incision sites. It's not very painful but I can most certianly feel it, not so much when I'm still just when I move. I'm visiting relatives in the UK and now I'm terrified I've slipped, pulled or broken the whole dam thing :whoo:. Has anyone else experience this sensation? If so what was it? did it go away? HELP!!!!:help:

I recall feeling little sharp stabbing pains every once in a while up until 4 wks post op. It's probably nothing, but just remember not to do anything strenuous (like lifting or exercising) until your doc gives you the go ahead.

Port may be blocked or baqnd slipped. I couldnt eat eggs at all. No matter how much I chewed or small amount eaten when I swallowed them got pain in the chest or side. Stop the eggs and see if it improves

The pain lasted for 3 days then I went to bed one day and the next day it was gone. Feel great now. I didn't call my doctor as I was away, but I will mention it to him on my follow up visit.

      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.
