Ok so my surgeon took my stomach out through an incision on must right side, a couple inches over from my belly button. I had pain at the incision site for the first 2 weeks. I'm now just over 4 weeks out and haven't had any pain. This morning I woke up in a lot of pain but no where near that site its further over to the right. It hurts to breathe, it hurts to move. Does anyone have any ideas what it might be from? Appendix? I don't know if I should go to the walk in clinic or try to wait it out. I don't see my PCP till Wednesday.

Could be appendix or even gall bladder. GB pain can radiate all over the right side. Can't you put a call into you PCP and see what they say. Best of luck.

Whenever I call they always tell me they can't tell me anything over the phone, that I need to come in and get checked.

When you press down does it hurt more pressing in or on the release?

Reason I ask is that the pressing down doesn't hurt as much as the release if it is an appendicitis.

Does it hurt to jump up and down? Another tell-tale sign of an appendicitis.

I would say go to the ER and get checked out if you can't get through to your surgeon's office. I know it is awful when stuff like this happens on a weekend.

Good Luck and keep us posted.

There should be someone one call!

It hurts to walk. I can't stand up straight to walk. I don't know if I should go to the e.r. or walk in clinic.

And my surgeons office is an hour away so they would probably want me to go to the e.r. there instead of here.

GO TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM !!!!! NOW!!!!!!!!!

I second that - go to the ER - right away - do not pass go, do not collect your $200, just go - that is NOTHING to fool around with.

Went to e.r. labs were fine they sent me home

Yes I would go to the ER but my incision and where they took my stomach out is on my left ...... It's is on your right???

Yup mine is on the right of my belly button. My labs at the e.r. came back as normal so I'm not dying and that's all they care about. They don't care that I'm in a lot pain. They sent me home with tylenol 3

I had the same type of pain and it turned out to be trapped gas.

Looks like its gallbladder

Going in for surgery at 9:30

Best of luck to you. Feel better!
