I had surgery Friday May 29th and am having sharp pains

near and to the left of my belly button. It feels like sharp stabs/pulling the skin feels sensative in that area too. When I left the hospital I had this but then it got better and now it is back. I know just to the left of that area is where my drain was and where most of the work from the surgery (RNY) was done but I am not sure why this pain is so bad now. It feels like I just got home from the hospital. A few have told me it could be my nerves finding their way and healing, along with my abs. I was off the pain med but now I am back on. It is hard to walk right now and before I was walking 30 min a day. I just hope this is apart of the healing process. Has anyone else had this or felt this?
