Stomach pain while lying down

I got a lap band revision to the sleeve. Since then when I lie down after I go to sleep its hard me to get up. I usually lye on my abdomen when going to sleep. The soreness feels really bad and goes into my back. I dunno what 2 do now.

Probably since you lay on your stomach, you're pushing into damaged tissue, bruised etc. and when you get up it's flaring up. Think if you had a bruise on your arm and you pushed into it for a minute then let go. It's pretty painful. I watched some YouTube videos on band to sleeve conversion (about to do it myself) and they are rough. A lot of cutting/burning of more than just that small area. The band creates scar tissue. Try sleeping on right side with a pillow prop or back and see if it still bothers you.
