I just had surgery on March 26 and my side hurts. My left side like my waist. It ranges from front to back. I thought it was mostly due to sleeping in the same position all night. Has anyone had this pain?

Yes! I had gastric bypass on March 27th and also have a bad pain on the left side under my rib cage. It goes down towards my waist, too. I guess it is just inflammationon the abdominal wall. Hope it goes away for both of us soon! Stay well.

The left side is where your stomach is. There was lots done there

Oh, thanks! I thought the stomach was right in the middle!! Lol

Well they must have left me screwed up inside. It feels like Precious Pouch sits in the middle , under the sternum and on top of my diaphragm, when I was complaing of right subcostal pain and worried my liver was failing, Dr Noria told me it was merely my ulcerated jejunem crying out, wanting to be healed. If things aren't located where I am feel7ng things, my abdominal nerves are sending ME lying messages about what is wrong. Bad when your innards get treacherous like that, who can you really trust?

Thank you. my hospital called me last night to check up on me. They said that pain is normal as long as it’s not getting worse. I go to follow up appointment on Friday. So let’s see.
