Question:
Sharp, poke like pain over my pouch. Any idea what it could be?

I saw the doctor three days ago for 8-week check up and was fine. Yesterday, I developed a pain on the right side of my incision. (by the pouch) It feels like a sharp poke like a staple or pin. I called my doctor and they can not tell what it is but said to watch it. Does anyone have any ideas on what is causing this? Is it normal? Could it be just be scar tissue? It started out hurting only when I pressed it but now it hurts when I stand up but just briefly as if someone is sticking me from the inside. I would appreciate any help. Thanks!    — jacutting (posted on February 28, 2003)

Just about the same thing happened to me Jennifer. I had my 8 week checkup last Friday and then this week I starting having some pressure and dull type pain in the same area you mentioned. I called and talked to my doctor's nurse and she said to come in if it turned into a sharp pain. Has anyone else had this feeling of pressure on their right side of their incision? Thanks!!

More information: Yes I do have my gallbladder but the pain is too high and too much to the left. Thanks
