Ok, I have been feeling really great,looking forward to my first fill. The day before my fill, I started feeling like something had gotten stuck(I have little or no Fluid in band) and was pretty painful but bearable. It felt just like if you swallowed real hard and 5 seconds later the pain would be gone except this pain did not go away for 2 days. I explained this to my dr. the next day and he would not give me a fill because he said I was eating to fast and maybe taking too big of bites( rescheduled me for 6 weeks later:().All day I felt slight discomfort, but it was bearable. Now yesterday I was feeling better for the most part except when I went to bed-I had bad pains between my breast bone and a lump in my throat.I do not have my gallbladder anymore, but boy are the feelings similar!! I do not know what to think this morning I am back to slight discomfort in my backbone and my ribcage is sore like I did situps or something. My husband thinks I am nuts!!(lol) I have been virtually pain free for most of my 5 weeks post op. I am going to call my dr. office when they open at 9, but I am so anxious!! I am trying not to worry about every little twitch, but I do not feel that my original pain was due to eating too fast.At the time I was in my dr office I did not think my pain would last 3 days and counting....I know my friends here would at least sympathize with me or commiserate(lol)Any input would be great!!!

I'm sorry you're in pain!! I'm not sure what the problem is, but I think checking it out with your doctor is the right thing to do.

Good luck! I hope this resolves quickly for you!

Kelly -

Will be curious to see what your doctor says. Did you go to liquids after you had the "pain?" Whenever I get stuck or have that feeling of discomfort - especially if it persists, I give things time to calm down and go to liquids for a few days, slowly getting back to solids. You may have some swelling and if you are eating solids it may be irritating it.

Let us know what you find out!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
