Not Sure What's Wrong

I am getting pain today and nauseated when I lay on my side or on my stomach. Anyone else have this before? When I am on my back not nearly as bad!!

Sorry you are going through this. Is it on the side where your port is? Do you still have your gallbladder?

I still have my gallbladder and the pain is higher in the front than my port.

I just had my surgery on Monday, September 10, and today I am having pain up in between the port incision and the incision right in the middle between my breast. Is this normal?

I'm 10 days post op and stil get sharp needle pains here and there. I'm sure what your feeling is normal.

I had my surgery on Monday the 10th as well (yay!) and I am still very sore at my port site, and still experiencing a LOT of gas pain. Nurse said it is all normal... Hopefully she is right. :)

I was very concerned about pain and nausea after sx. I work with the md who did my surgery and made sure he used local on me. I have chronic pain and was concerned that the pain meds wouldnt work. But it did. Only had gas discomfort for 2 days. My surgeon only does 3 lap sites!!
