Pain Lower Right Side Back

I keep getting these shooting pains in my lower right side of my back. Please tell me I just slept wrong. I googled it and and some of the problems are dehydration and kidney stones. Any have this? I was six weeks out yesterday. I thougt I was drinking plenty of water. I get in usually 60- 80oz of water a day and that doesn't count the protein shakes and other things that include liquid. I had my eggs this morning so I'm waiting to drink. I will just drink all day and see if it goes away..

Funny you asked that question...I have had the same kind of pain. I thought the same thing, maybe I slept wrong...But I got a little worried last night. I keep thinking im going to develop a leak or something & have to have surgery again. Mine is more on my side than in my back...Im hoping its the incision line healing & maybe pulling a little!! I am 4weeks out today. If anybody has experienced this please post!! Thanks :)

Could be gallbaldder. If it continues you need to call your doctors, regardless what it is. I had mine out 7 weeks after my sleeve surgery.

I dont have a gallbladder! Had mine out 12 yrs ago! I dont think it would hurt in the lower part of your side..but I guess anything is possible

Then yep, probably isn't gallbladder pain for you. ;-). Is it any better/worse as the day progresses?

Maybe trapped gas? Have you tried gasX strips?

How are you doing? Any better? Do you have your gall bladder?

It did get better. I drank 2 16oz this morning and I'm on my 3rd. I hope it doesn't come back. I did go back to work yesterday for the first time maybe I didn't drink as much as I usually do. I don't have any pain at all. thanks for asking.
