Lower right abdominal pain



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone. So I’m really starting to think maybe this is appendicitis.....? But I wanted to ask on here and see if anyone had any other thoughts. Since Monday, I keep having this stabbing type pain in my lower right abdominal area. It only last for about 7-10 seconds and then it goes away but it just keeps getting stronger and more frequent. I can’t figure out any correlation between the pain and when I eat or what I eat so I just don’t know. I’m 3 months out from gastric bypass and up till now doing great.
Any possible ideas of what this could be?

Please make an appointment with a doctor, sudden/ongoing and unexplainable pain should be investigated as soon as possible. Don't waste time looking for answers on social media.

Could be your gallbladder but most definitely go to your doctor as soon as possible.

Well naturally @Hop_Scotch I was just wondering if anyone had any ideas.
@Arabesque I had my gallbladder removed about 10 years ago so I should be good there.
It seemed to kind of go away a little bit ago but it’s starting up again. I’ll get it checked out.

Well I would like to know what you find out. I have been having it also. It just started Thursday and I said something to the surgeon while there and he pushed around a little and thinks it has something to do with the incision sight but I don't think so, it goes to deep and sometimes feels like its in my back. I don't have gallbladder either. I am hoping its just a pulled muscle. I giving it a few more days before I call back down there.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
