I have had mild pain under my left rib cage too since surgery (8/17). I figured it was my sleeve continuing to heal, since it seemed to be the exact spot where my sleeve is sitting. I think it has gotten less every day, slowly. Anybody have a clue what it's from? I read somewhere that they attach the sleeve to the wall of the abdomen... is that true, and if so could it be those stitches causing the pain?

I had a twitching in my left side. When I asked my surgeon she said its the muscle they go through to get to the stomach, said if it gets really spasm like that I'm doing to much Nd I need to calm down I was sleeved 8/12 .. But in the last week I've only noticed it a few times and it was after I was really active for longer than usual.

feels like a baby turning in there sometimes :) I just pat my hand on it like I did when I was pregnant. LOL

Exactly. If your hurting under your rib age your pushing your body too much. I was pushing myself way too hard and finding myself unable to move at all because the pain was so unbearable. I relaxed for a couple days and then got back to the regular routine making sure not to over do myself and take breaks and now at 8 weeks I feel loads better. No pain at all
