Pain in right side



Recommended Posts

This morning I was sitting at my desk and stood up, and a sharp pain hit me in my right side. It hung around for a few minutes. It hurt worse everytime I took a deep breath. Felt like a muscle cramp. Then the pain went away. Tonight...after participating in "the horizontal mambo", as someone put it recently, it started again. This time it's worse. It hurts when I bend over or move a certain way. Still feels like a cramp or something and it's very painful.

So...after searching LBT and not finding any real answers quickly enough, I called the doctor on call. He said it sounds like a muscle spasm near the port. I just wanted to post this in case anyone else has had this experience or does in the future. I'm going in for a fill tomorrow, finally, and he said they'd take a look at me then.

yuppers!!! It is not fun, at least afterwards.It is from the pulling on the band. Definitely a muscle pain. Try a warm compress.

Yep...that's what the doc said, too. Warm compress. And if Tylenol didn't help, try a little Motrin. He (actually the PA) didn't seem to think it was a big deal. He did say I might want to avoid that type of "exercise" for a couple of days...lol.
