Pain under left rib cage



Recommended Posts

I've been having this pain under my rib cage for the past couple of days. I am assuming it is just the gas, but I'm not sure as the pain seems to be in the same spot constantly. Has anyone else had this?

I had this, horrible pain. I ended up going to the ER to rule out a pulmonary embolism (blot clot in the lung) and took my pain meds for a few days and after 4 or 5 days I'm back to normal now. You should probably check with your doc to be safe though.

Yes i experienced that about a week ago, i had been overdoing it with my eating for about a week I don't know what the pain was it was really bad for one day kinda bad on day two and just a distant memory now..I don't know what it was though..i meant to ask my surgeon last week but forgot. I am thinking it had something to do with my port .... maybe ??? don't know but hopefully it doesn't happen again, it was kinda scary...i will ask my surgeon next time I see her though..If I remember LOL.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
