I am 10 days post op and have been having this pain on my left side, it's low like at the belly button level. I have an appointment at the doc tomorrow, but I am wondering if anyone else has experienced this type of pain? I am hoping everything is okay.

Is that where your port site is? I have pain on my left side as well and my RN explained that is where my port site is. Good luck at your appt tomorrow. I was banded 8/12 and see my Dr. on Fri.

I am about a month out and also have a pain on my left side (opposite side than port), about where you describe. I notice it after I eat sometimes and other times it is a dull pain, not around feeding time. It's a lot more painful after I eat. My next appointment is 9/1 and I've decided that it's not bad enough to warrant a visit before then, but will be curious to hear what your doc says. :)

I am glad someone else is experiencing this pain ((Not that ur in pain)) just so that it's most likely nothing serious. YEah, the port site is not that low... so I am not sure exactly what it is going on there.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
