Question:
experiencing pain on left side above belly button that comes and goes

Hi everyone, I am 7 months out and down 105 lbs and doing great except for the last month to month and a half at all different times of the day (and night also) I experience a crampy type pain in the left side above my belly button. If I get it at night I cant sleep. Called doc, and he ordered a CT scan (negative) and am ging this week for bloodwork. I know its not an ulcer, I already had that lovely experience. Help anyone Thanks and God bless    — Donna R. (posted on September 7, 2003)

I was severly constipated and that is where I had the pain. Did the xray show stool in that area. They did all sorts of test on me and finally, realized I was constipated.

You didn't say what type of surgery that you had but with rny your old stomach can fill with gas and cause crampy type pain.
