Due to many abdominal surgeries over my lifetime my surgeon perservered and removed my kidney laparoscopically in spite of all the adhesions. I had pain on my right side and flank for about three weeks with any kind of movement... up, down, coughing etc. Was then pain free. Suddenly six weeks after surgery the same pain reoccurred. I read the archives and the best description would be a rubber band being pulled it's full limit. Blood work, sonogram, CT scan shows nothing. Could this pain be caused from scar tissue or adhesions. I thought it took longer to form adhesions. Has anyone had this experience? Any information will be appreciated.
