I am 4 weeks out as of yesterday.  I was feeling great till now.  On my right side I have this tender area.   Starts right below the rib cage and goes to the belly button.  Is this something common or is it something to be concerned about?   Did anyone else have this???

I may have to put a call in to the DR.  I hate to waste his time if this is something comon.  I go back to him next Tuesday.  Any thoughts

thanks
JoAnn

What an idiot I am.  I typed Right side and it is actually the LEFT side. Thats what I get for doing 3 things at one time.   Thanks for the info anyway..  I have a call in waiting for a call back.

I dont have my gall bladder.  Had that removed 8 years ago..   Getting a little frazzled.
Last night I had my first dump.  Ate  2 bites of some chicken.   Seemed to go down ok and and tasted great.  Then all of a sudden.  Mouth started watering, hot, and then you got it.  After that I felt ok.  Dont want to have that  happen again to soon.

soooooo are you allowed to be eating chicken this soon? maybe it was to dry? did you chew chew chew and chew some more?? next time try laying on your left side and see if that helps it to move through...maybe your pouch is irratated from the dumping?? try doing liquids for a day or two see if that helps.

JoAnn,

It is not wasting his time, so call. If you are in pain, that is a problem.

When in pain, don't wait too long to get it looked at!

Thanks everyone.

I called the DR's office.  Spoke with the RN.  Dr is in and out of the office all week. She advised  If the pain gets worse go to the ER.  Well it isnt worse, just the same as of now.    I  just have alot of faith in my surgeon and dont want to see someone else.  There are only 2 Dr's here at this hospital that do this .  If  it still bothers me tomorrow I will go.

Have a good night.

JoAnn
