Thanks for your response. Did you know what caused your pain? Torn muscle? Just was curious. I'll hang in there.

I did not have pain in my back and really didn't have that much Gas pain. I am not taking Gas X now. It feels more like pulling and burning pain in the lower stitch area. I can get up from a chair and even bed if I go straight up - anything lateral hurts and I feel the pain. I'm wearing the stomach compression belt that I got from the hospital to keep everything in tact. It does hurt when I sit for long periods of time and sometimes in the car I can feel the burn. Good thing is - I don't have fever, nauseated, and food is going down ok. Just need to figure it out the pain. I'm glad you are out of pain now. I see the dr. in a couple weeks so maybe it will go away before then. Good luck in your journey!!

So I am a new member. Just got sleeved 31/2 weeks ago. Last two weeks I started having burning pain in left side. Went to see DR. He had me to leak test, gallbladder test as well as CT scan for blood clots and also blood work. Everything checked out fine. It feels like a torn internal muscle but pain is not letting up. Any advice or suggestions?? How long will the pain last ?
