Went to the office this morning and saw the other surgeon since my surgeon is in surgery today. She thinks my left side abdominal pain is being caused by the stitch that's in there that closed the trocar site and when I move and use that muscle its rubbing and irritating that area. She gave me a injection of local so that will help for a couple of days. She answered all of my questions and was wonderful! She reviewed what I've been eating (mostly some pureeds since I was scared to advance to softs) and said I'm not eating enough (which I new). She said these next couple of days (while the local is working) increase my pureeds and introduce soft foods to see if it's the muscle or my sleeve. I feel so much better and assured! AND I've lost 40lbs since Aug 1st just wanted to update incase this info can help someone else.
