Uncomfortable after surgery

I was banded on 3/4. Pain is pretty much gone, but I have this weird feeling like something is jabbing me under the rib when I sit down. The only way to get comfortable is to lie down. Was wondering if anybody else has experienced this or anything similar? :tongue:

    I got my band on 2/26 and I feel the EXACT same way. Everyone keeps telling me it's normal and will pass. It has gotten better - but I still feel it!!

    See your doctor Monday, and if it gets bigger before then, go the emergency room (be sure to tell them you had a lap band put in)

    Mine is much better today. Seemed to get much better after I got out and got some movement today. The swollen spot is probably your port. You probably should consult your surgeon.
