Yesterday my band got tight, like hard time drinking water tight. I had some tea and was fine, but later in the day as soon as I ate something I have aching under my left rib. Feels like a side ache under my rib and it only hurts after I have eaten something. Should I be worried? I can eat, drink normal, I just get this pain and an ache in my back directly behind when it hurts in the front.

Call your doctor.

Wish I could, they are not available until Monday

Take it easy over the weekend. liquids, Soups, real soft stuff. If you have swelling try not to drink hot liquids as hot will only make swelling worse. Try sipping ice Water or icy drinks.

I am sure your doctor has an emergency number and someone on call. Your best bet is to call them. The place you describe is where my port is.

My doctor's office has someone on call 24/7. It doesn't hurt to check. Good luck.
