    Psych Meds after Gastric Bypass

    I take a generic ritalin but i had to be switched from extended release to immediate release so now i take 3 20mgs a day. Most extended release medications dont work on me. I had my gastric bypass in 2005. Not sure if any of this info helps
  2. Hello all, I had my Gastric Bypass (Roux-en-Y, Laparoscopic) August 17th 2005. I had my gall bladder taken out in May of 2007. I can't say I remember when this started but I know I had talked to a doctor before about it. Sometimes I'll have a very bad onset of pain in my stomach. It will feel like I need to poop badly, instead nothing will move. I usually deal with this pain between 15-30 minutes. Then Suddenly I will hear this loud deep gargle from around my left side, the sounds sorta sound like something releasing pressure or steam. The feeling that goes with it i can not describe at all. I wanna say it feels like an inner burp. Then all the pain goes away like nothing ever happened. Like I said I asked my doctor about it, thinking maybe I have a leak or something like that in my pouch, but when I was checked everything had healed fine. I have tried to see what causes this but it can happen at weird times where I haven't eaten anything at all since I was in a deep sleep, to drinking water to eating a banana. It has happened at home, at work and when I was attending, at college. The worse is when it happens at work, sometimes I'll get a warning gargle so I can rush to the bathroom to be in pain in peace ( we have a nice family bathroom in the back where I can be for the time period) I just want to know if anyone else has had this or something like it? I admit I haven't see my surgeon in over 10 years since my current insurance doesn't cover visits to him. I lost my parents insurance, after the insurance fully paid for my surgery, a month after my surgery, since I was no longer a full time student in college, since ya know I JUSST HAD MAJOR SURGERY lol
