AuntyFabulous 18 Posted November 19, 2016 I had this pain in week 3. It was terrible! Hurt when I moved, fine lying still. Turned out I was very constipated. Took place and senna Smooth Move tea and felt better as soon as things started moving along again. Can't wait to be able to eat some spinach!

lisam1972 62 Posted November 19, 2016 Thanks for your reply. I have been constipated , maybe that's what it is ? Only seem to happen when driving. I suppose I'm still healing at present. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
