Does anyone have pain in left side after a year?

I was a year out on July 10th. I have done very well. No problems. Now I am having some pain off and on. I did mention it in my year check up. But The NP did not seem to think it was a problem. Anyone else have any pain in left side? Thanks Sundra

Sundra- I have pain on the left side occasionally...it's more of a dull pain than a sharp one. It also doesn't seem to be related to eating or anything either...very random. My PA said that it's probably either gas or something moving through the intestines (there's a "corner" on the left side apparently!). She told me it probably wasn't anything to worry about either, but that if it got much worse or more consistent to contact her again. Does that sound like what you're experiencing? Christina S

I just spent 5 hours in ER on my B-Day with pain in my left side. They did a CAT scan and found nothing wrong. Now I have to go see a GI Dr. Errr!

I just had my one year with my doc. and I had been having pain on my lower right side 2 weeks ago. This pain was sharp and would go away if I layed down for a few hours. I mention that to him and he was VERY concerned, I told him I assumed it was gas pains because it would go away after I layed down but he told me that it could be more serious, that when and if it happend again to feel were it hurt and see if there was a "small ball or lump" and if moved and "rubbed" away, I was to get a hold of him immediatly, that it was an ulcer. He felt around there at my appointment and found nothing but he was still concerned. I don't know if it would be the same on the left side or not but I just wanted you to know. Lynette

Sundra, I had pain on my left side about 6 months after RNY and it turned out to be kidney stones. It was more pain than the RNY surgery. I was told that sometimes it's related and sometimes not. Laura

Yes. It started back in December. At first, we thought it was an ovarian cyst because it is *right* there. But now, after a second ultrasound, it appears that it's not the case. It may be endometriosis, or something else, perhaps an adhesion. At this point, we're kind of stymied as to where to go from here.
