I'm one week and it's starting to hurt a little same side too. Last night it was soo itchy but today more pain. I'm back to work so it might have to do with my sitting down all morning

Very common mine lasted about 2 1/2 weeks actually got a little worse before the deep left side stitch popped. Hang in there it will be over soon!

Ok, typical mom response here, but I'm also a sleever so...

Have you had good BM's? Because it does make a difference if that is lacking.

Either or it's probably intestinal issues.. Which are most likely normal (kind of). With that said... I'm not dr so ask your dr if our really concerned ;)

Yes, my pain was pretty bad for a couple weeks, getting better gradually and now very infrequent problem. Just been able to sleep on my sides for a couple days. Sleeve date was 12/10.

Thanks guys. I'm getting an ultrasound today. They said it sounds like a hematoma. For better news my surgery was 12/27 and I'm down 10 pounds!
