Do you think it could be trapped wind still?

I have had these symptoms too, is it really sharp sudden pain and shocks you doesn't it, then disappears as quickly as it came only to repeat again a few times?
I had this every few weeks or so during the last 9 months and brought it up with my surgeon who explained its common and its the nerves "knitting" back together again.....I have had a bypass and know you have a band but could it be the same reason?
I can really relate to this thread, thanks Emm

YES!!!! your spot on there hun, they really take your breath away dont they :cry:
Am so glad someone knows what i was trying to explain, they are easing at the mo but still regulary happen, Hope your on the mend now x

Bless you, I didn't notice you were only 3 days post op!
I think these things are to be expected early on and wind even though you may think its all gone may well still be lurking, it can be oh so painful!
Soon the joy of dropping lbs will make all this fade away hopefully.
I still occasionally have the electric shock pains but nothing like early on.
Good luck and I will pay close attention to your progress with your band.
Have a nice gentle weekend. x

Hi Emma
i also had these pains, luckily it doesn't last long, i was told by the WL team that it is due to the port being stitched to muscle on the left hand side , our body just has to learn to adjust , mine lasted about 7-10days,it happened mainly when turning over in bed or twisting /bending, (with the shopping trolly ) they tell me its normal and can last about a month in some people. Hope this helps.
