Occasional pain in lower right belly 4.5 weeks out



Recommended Posts

I'm 4.5 weeks out and I've been really good, sometimes to the point of thinking did I have an op! biggrin.gif Anyway, I get a bad sharp stabbing pain in the lower right of my belly and was wondering if anyone else had this (FYI this is nowhere any of my incisions). It feels like a really chronic stitch (you know the type you get from running) and I wouldn't ever call a doc about that - before everyone recommends that! wink.gif

I did manage to get one very low impact Step session in the other day, but this hurts just to walk around at the mo. I want to get exercising by New Year at the latest (ie Saturday) and was just wondering if other people had had similar experiences. Should I just take painkillers when needed? The pain comes and goes and I'm worried about constantly popping painkillers which is why I've been holding off.

Where at? I just had some tonight. Worked out with weights today and walked for an hr yesterday. mine are like flashing pains about 3 in above my belly button and 2 in.to.the right. Doesn't feel like pain from overeating. Almost like a spasm but pain instead. Seems to be better when I lay down.

Hi Amy, the pain's just above my right hip. I've been mostly OK for the last 48 hours. I did a decent workout for 1.5 hours yesterday morning and had a few seconds of pain in bed last night, so I don't think it's related to that. Fingers crossed it's mostly gone, but I'm just curious as to what it was! unsure.gif

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
