I am 3 months post op today and no issues. However, I just laid down for bed & very suddenly got this horrible pain. It started mid back then radiated around my right side under my breast area. I haven't had heartburn today- could it still be that? Could it be gas? I just got up and took some gas-x so seeing if that helps. It felt almost like when you eat too much and it gets stuck- but I haven't eaten for a few hours. Very odd...

Sounds like your gall bladder. Do you still have it? And on a scale of 1-10 how bad is the pain? 10 being the worst pain ever.

When it happened I would say the pain was a 9, now it's seems to be gone but my lower right side is hurting like towards my pelvic area.

Could be a kidney stone that moved lower or gallbladder attack. Go for an ultrasound of the gallbladder, kidneys and ureters.

If you still have your appendix I would get that checked too. I had to have mine removed last summer

It's possible that it's your sciatic nerve. It's an oddity that happens to quite a lot of us who have lost weight and either carry ourselves differently, walk, sleep or stand differently from what our norm us to be.

Mine was lower right back and then around to my front to where I thought maybe I had a gall bladder trouble. It was also a 9 on the pain scale. It wouldn't go away and got so bad I went to the ER and they gave me a muscle relaxant and I was better. it happened again a month later and luckily the doc had sent me home with an extra pill.
