I am three days out band to bypass. Drinking, walking, taking pain meds - but I have this pain in the lower right side of my back. Anyone else experience this?

It's the most pronounced discomfort I have.

Thanks!!

I will call my doc if it gets really bad of course.

Hey Sherrie! Bet you a buck its gas, the gas pains suck! Had wife go pick me up some gas-x, and I can actually feel all the gas moving. My day 3 has been way better than day 2. We will figure this junk out! Gas-x equals pooptin and relief!

Okay I guess you answered my question does the gasx make you pass the gass and poo.  I am 5 days post opt called doctor they told me to us milk of magnesia but thats not really doing anything

I am 4 days out - no poop yet. But I had a clear liquid diet followed by a bowel cleanse. I bet there isn't much in there yet. Lol
