sam1016 10 Posted May 25, 2016 I am entering week 3 post op. Saw my doctor after one week said all was good and I started feeling better too, felt like I was returning to normal. Today I went to get out of bed and has a sharp pain and burning sensation on my Left side near where your stomach is, near my belly button. Sharp/ burning lasts a minute and then is extremely sore like a bruise. I called my doctor and I do not see them for another two weeks, he said I must have pulled my internal stitch but it just happened again this evening. I have been able to drink and eat my puréed foods with no issues. I am not running a fever either. I am just curious did this happen to anyone else, same location and feeling?

jane13 2,256 Posted May 25, 2016 @@sam1016 - I had some pain in that area but more centered around my belly button. That is where my stomach was removed from my abdomen. I did left something a bit too heavy and had a pain in that general area around the 3 week timeframe. Are you watching your weight restrictions? Are you pulling, or exerting yourself, getting out of bed where you may have pulled that internal stitch? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
