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.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
