i had my lap band surgery a week ago now and from time to time, the feeling I get on my side is like I walked too fast and I have that "stitch" feeling like I've walked fast for a while and you get that pain in your side...has anyone else felt this?

I had it off and on since surgery last friday. Maybe just gas??? I am not sure!!

I have had the same thing, kind of like a nagging side ache that goes on all day. I woke up with mine this morning. I went to the gym thinking maybe I could work it out, but at 8:00 tonight it's still here, but not as bad. I think its just all part of it. Have my two week post op this Thursday so I'll ask and let you know.

I have been banded for 2 years and never had that happen untill about 6 mo. ago I have been wondering what was causing the pain after so long I just thought maybe it was from the Tubing Ive heard it can sometimes adhere to organs or muscles.
