Severe shooting pains, over 3 weeks post op

Question... I am over 3 weeks post op, and I was feeling great. So great, that I think I overdid it with the exercise last week. I felt like I had pulled a muscle, and so I took the weekend off. But, it hasn't gotten any better. In fact, it is much more painful and I'm starting to get scared. I have made an appointment to see my doc tomorrow, so please don't suggest that. 

I was just wondering if any of you experienced these sharp, sudden, severe pangs upon sitting, standing, reaching, etc. It feels like a shooting burning pain that slides down my gut, to the left of my belly button. I don't have any other symptoms that might indicate a leak--no fever, no vomitting, normal bowel movements. Its just really annoying and painful, and I thought at this far out I would be feeling better. 

Have any of you experienced this late-in-the-game pain? If so, what did you do about it? What did your doctor say? Is it a sign of complications? I'd be interested to know how common this is.

Nope, never experienced it.  My definition of "severe" may be different than yours.  If I was having that bad of pain I would be getting my butt to an emergency room and not waiting for a doctor's appointment.

I had a very sharp stabbing when I ache something that didn't agree with me. I ate my gasx and I was ok by the next day. Are you eating anything? Or were you just feeling that after you exercised? If so I would go straight to the doctors

I had that sort of pain also and thought that I over did it to with cleaning the house and I even went to the e r , I ended up having to go into emergency surgery for a removal of a transfascial stucture ,  immediately felt better after.
