Pulling pain on right side?



Recommended Posts

Well over the past 2-3 days I've developed a "pain" on the right side of my abdomen. It feels like a pulling pain. I don't feel it when sitting, but when I stand up and move it is there. I can eat and drink like normal. I did run two 5k's last weekend and I'm hoping it is stemming from that. Anyone experience something similar?

Most of us feel stuff on the left side. Not much going on on the right. Could be completely disconnected to your band?

Sometimes the pain is more intense then other times. I can totally feel pulling around my port when I do a lot of ab work so I know that sensation, but this right sided pain throws me. I am going to call the surgeon in the morning to see about getting in for them to check me out.

You could have pulled a muscle. Or it could be liver or gall bladder related.

msapp77 I have the exact same pain. When I do more physical activity it becomes dull and only rest settles it back down. I have had mine since surgery. My doctor has told me it is normal, associated with my port. Over time it has lessened and is only noticeable when I am very active. Hope that helps!!!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
