anyone experience severe pain in left side under breast? It feels like the same pain as gas shoulder pain but 3 x worse. Is this a pulled muscle, has, or a spasm?

Best to call your surgeon. One of my incisions was on the left side under my breast. Maybe a pulled stitch? If you're scared, though, always call them and ask.

I follow a ketogenic diet post-op. I also have a diagnosis of binge eating disorder. Feel free to ask me about either!

I think that calling your surgeon is a good idea. In the unlikely event that a stitch slipped or something, it's better if they can check you out as soon as possible after symptoms start.

I hope you feel better soon!
