I went to work, stayed til noon, had lunch and the pain kicked in an hour later. I called my doc's nurse again, and she consulted with Dr. K, and his take is that it may be stitches that have not dissolved and are causing irritation. I asked if these are stitches where my intestines are connected (hell what do I know?). She said no, the stitches that were holding the tube in. I should put on hot compressess and it should dissipate. So I am toughing it out. It definitely acts up after I have eaten something. When I sneeze the pain is huge. Marcella 1/93 Gastric Banding Marcella, I have been having a similar pain in my right side that seems to be where the drainage tube was. It is worse after I eat and is accompanied by a belchy sensation. I'm fine when I'm not eating, but get this way after I eat. It feels kind of like a pulling sensation type pain.

Guest guest Posted August 29, 2003 Report Share Posted August 29, 2003 Marcella my friend. Please telephone the office! You may just have a hernia already, or it may be something else. But, not knowing is WORSE than what ever it might be. So, listen to your Uncle Jim here, and call the office! That's why we paid the programme fee! Jim update on my latest ailment ;o) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 29, 2003 Report Share Posted August 29, 2003 Jim Honey I did talk to the office. I wrote in the email that I spoke with Dee and I also relayed what Dr. K's impression of the pain was all about.... Go back to go and re-read it. ;o) Marcella Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
