I was sleeved last Monday 5/5 and I know it's still early on but I have horrible pain by my right ribs. Has anyone experienced this? Maybe it's just where the stomach was cut? Ty

Do you have a drainage tub?

Nope

I did have a hiatal hernia as well he stitched up plus intestines thru my abdominal wall. I have 30 staples for 14 incisions. No I'm drinking fine not nauseous just hurts to laugh, cough or take deep breaths.

know many have had a hiatal hernia (not me)

that "might" be an attributing factor to your pain in the rib area

check with your doc

hurting when you laugh ???? knock it off!!!!

no more coughing allowed - suck it up!!!

deep breathing????

hmmmmmm, stop breathing

nawwwww, keep on keepin on

feel better

Seen my doc today my staples were taken out and I found out the pain I'm having is from my intestinal problem.

Same issue. I'm post-op day 1 and also had a hernia repair.
