Hiya folks,
i just had laparoscopic gallbladder surgery 4 days ago. It was my first sugery at 29 years old. I have some weird all over tummy rumbling going on but i'm atributing that to the carbon dioxide they used to inflate my chest during the surgery. I feel ok other then babying my 4 surgery holes and I can eat anything without feeling nausious. Though I do find I feel more full quicker when eating then I did before I had my gallbladder removed.
The thing that is really bugging me is I have this weird dull pain once in a while on my right side on my back just bellow my ribcage. It is actually right under one of the far incisions. Like if you could stick something in that insicion and go twords my back, it lines up perfectly. I can move my right arm all around with no pain. It usually happens when I sit up. Last night I was pulling a pillow underneither my back and lightly hit the spot on my back. That hurt but it went away. It feels like someone is contantly poking me in my back from my insides.
Has anyoen else had this happen? Does it go away? I would call my doctor but he's on vacation until next week and his stand in doctor seems .. Well.. Rude and uppity.
Thanks in advance!
