I am getting a sharp pain in my right hand side around muscle area when stand and walk - i was only sleeved 5 days ago is this normal or should i be concerned???

Any type of sharp pain is not normal. You could have referred pain from the left. I had no pain at all with the exception of the pinching feeling from the small incisions. It's always best to call your Dr. Unusual sharp pains can be a sign of a leak.

It doesn't hurt to call your surgeon's office. Oh wait, it's saturday. Ummmm! If it's unbearable, you could go into urgent care. If you have a fever, your incision site is red and really sore, then definitely go into your urgent care or ER.
