2weeks post sleeve, bad left side pain, almost zero weightloss

I am 2 weeks post sleeve surgery January 8, 2019. Have had only a 5 lb loss since surgery. Following diet and vitamins. Also developed a severe cramping/stabbing pain in lower left side the Doctors office doesnt seem to care about. Just told me to put on a tight shirt. Pain meds do not touch it..and it hurts to bad to exercise. Feel I have made a huge mistake. Lost more weight pre OP on my own than with this mess..just getting frustrated and depressed.

I haven't started taking my vitamins yet. My doctor said not to start until I'm eating actual foods, around 4 weeks. Vitamins without food to break them down can wreak havoc on your system. The omeprazole has been a life saver. You should talk to your doctor about it, as well as all the vitamins.
