Back pain?

For the past week I have been experiencing a dull ache on my left side. It is towards my back and sometimes gets worse but its mostly just a dull ache. It happens when I'm driving to work or sitting. Standing I don't feel it...Any suggestions? I hate calling the surgeon...I'm 6 months post op and do not have my gallbladder.

I have no clue.  But if it's been going on for a week, it's probably time to get it checked out.

But why do you hate calling your surgeon?  And  if you're six months out, it's time to get labs done anyway so you would need to see your surgeon or PCP to get those ordered (unless they already gave you an order for labs).

I had similar issues. I spoke to my pcp, as I had a follow up with him. He said it was from carrying myself differently.
