I have been on a low carb high protein diet for 9 days. I have had stomach pain in my upper abdomen and nausea. When I eat it gets worse. When I don't eat the pain goes away. The stomach pain doesn't move around, stays in one place. Don't have diahreah or constipation or abnormal passing of gas. It hurts bad enough that I have to lay down and I have a reasonable tolerance to pain. I am going to call the doctor on Monday, but have any of you had that reaction from eating a low carb/high protein diet? Good news, I have lost 10 pounds in 9 days.

Hello,

I was in the same position about a week ago. I called the doctors office and was taken off the pre-op diet and was advised to eat smaller portions. My back pain was so severe I could not bend over. I went back on the diet for the last two days since I am being banded tomorrow. Now I am a little concerned about the liver issue.
