  2. Thank you everyone for the feedback and information. I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow to get the ball rolling on what is causing this issue. The past two days have been fine, and have had no stomach problems. This could actually be unrelated to my bypass, but when ever I have any kind of stomach issues, that's typically my first go to when looking for the cause.
  3. I had my gastric bypass approximately 15 years ago. Something has been happening the past several months and I wanted to see if anyone else has encountered this issue. Of course I am going to get with a doctor, but I thought I'd ask if anyone else has gone through this. It's happened to me three times, and its getting worse each time. For approximately 3 hours last night I had severe stomach pain. It was extremely intense, to the point where I couldn't even stand up. It was a constant throbbing pain, I honestly felt like my stomach was about to tear open. I was also sweating profusely and burping a lot. I would have gone to the ER, but there was no way I could have driven. I felt like I was almost on the verge of passing out. The pain eventually subsided and I basically passed out for a few hours. I woke up very sore and of course exhausted. The past few times, I had thought it was due to overeating, but last night it was the opposite. I had come home from the gym, and was about to eat dinner when it started. Honestly, it actually scared me. Has anyone else been through this or has heard of anything similar?
