Pain 2 weeks after GB surgery



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery on the 19th of November and have dropped 20lbs so far which is goo but I have a pain which won’t subside on my left. Dr said that’s mainly where he stitched but boy it takes my breath away🤕

I had the same pain and it turned out to be kidney stones. Idk if some people feel kidney pain more up front than the back but I sure did. I only had back pain once on Tgiving and I went to the ER because i didn't think it was a kidney stone. I had no other symptoms. One is quite big so it must have been building for awhile. I have pcos so I thought it was that pain all year.

My kidney stones felt like back pain and also like gastro or a funny tummy. It meant I didn't get diagnosed for ages coz I thought I had been eating dodgy food and my GP thought I had giadia!

I have been growing my stones for a year (at least the 12mm one) and didn't get back pain all year. That's why I just kept getting diagnosed as pcos or UTI. It hurt but not like labor. Maybe I just had really bad labor to compare it to.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
