Default Pain 3 months after surgery

Had a lap. app. last October and everything seemed fine...was even up and about 3 days after surgery. About a week ago, i noticed intense lower/middle back pain, mostly on my right side. As the back pain subsided, i noticed pain in my lower right abdomen...very similar to just before i had my procedure.

Is this normal? I was fine for months and now it hurts. I have also noticed a slight loss of appetite and a bit of nausea after eating.

Here's the rub, i dont have health insurance. The surgery cost me a small fortune and there's no way i want to go back unless absolutely necessary. What are my options and should i be concerned?

Move to a different country? Get insurance! Without insurance your health is really in jeopardy... I have seen policies as low as $50/month online...

Appendicitis recovery will take a little while but it is not forever. Don't try to rush things because you are anxious to go back to work. Appendicitis recovery should be covered by whatever sick time you have available. And if your job isn't understanding... well, your health has got to come before your employment. You don't want to try to force yourself back to work when you haven't underwent a full appendicitis recovery. Your body is still in a sensitive state due to being physically operated on and having suffered an illness that could've killed you. Take a break and try not to worry about the consequences. There are millions of jobs out there, you only have just one life.

Default Pain 3 months after surgery

Hi All,

Thank you so much for your support. I feel a bit better about things today. I went out today for the first time and had lunch with my husband. I was nervous but it turned out fine.

I operate before three months, but the pain is the muscles, of course, but also spent a lot of injuries for surgery and, often, the tendons to strengthen their response to trauma. The muscles need to be freed of its removal of evil and what is happening.
