Did you have your stomach pulled out in your right or left side? If it was your right side that probably explains your pain. However, my stomach was pulled out from my left side and about two weeks after surgery I had horrible pain on my right side. The doctor said that I likely pulled a muscle and it would pass. It lasted for about three weeks and finally just passed. An option would be to contact your doctor to be on the safe side :).

Stomach was removed from right side. I have the right side pain. The incision they pulled the stomach through should be bigger than the others, that's how you'll know. I was told the pain on the right side could last several weeks post op as everything is healing in there.

I just spoke to the nurse practitioner at my surgeons office for the exact same pain. I was told it was from the stomach being pulled out from there and the abdominal muscles being cut during the procedure. I'm just 6 days post op.

I had no pain so ever . My doctor said to me if I feel any kind of pain I should call him right away ! Not even gas pain ! My stomach was removed from the right side too . Give him a call at any pain you have

I am 4 days post op and have the worse pain around the big incision. My doctor gave me tramadol for the muscles and I walk around holding where my incision is so it doesn't hurt as much

Your large incision is where the stomach was pulled out.

I had pain for a while around my incision and also held it while I walked. A compassion belt will help wonders!

Same here. Feels better to hold pressure when I walk too.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
