Odd Pain

[colomomof3 0]

I was banded last Friday, July 16th, and everything was going great. As of last night I have been getting a terrible pain in the right side of my upper stomach, right below my ribs. It can be so painful that it is hard to walk. I'm pretty sure it is not gas pains (or gallbladder) as it feels almost like a stitch in my side. I only feel the pain when I'm up walking, not when I'm lying down or sitting.

I called the surgeons office today and she said that most people complain about the left side--something to do with nerve endings.

Has anyone else dealt with this? They said if it keeps happening I'm going to have to go back and see the Dr. (100 mi away). It has made me very nervous--what could it be?

Hope someone has advice. Thanks in advance.

Yes. was gas pain for me, and as much as walking hurts, it helps over time. I took infant gas drops and walked like no1's business, lol. It hurt like HELL, but it ended up getting the air loose and making it better.
