Strange stomach pain

Hey guys. I have this weird pain that started last night. It only happens when I eat. I feel like my band is closing off and I can't breathe and it hurts to move in any way. I will eat about two bites of food and it hurts in my chest so I stop. Well about an hour later I start getting that feeling like someone has punched me in the stomach. I don't have a fill and I'm six weeks out and this is the first that this has happened to me it's so painful that all I can do us lay there and cry in agony. It's awful. I was just wondering if anyone has felt this before or may e you have an idea as to what it is. Thanks for your help.

Amber, you should be giving your surgeon a call, especially if you are in so much pain you are crying. Best wishes.

You should really call your doctor. It could be an infection or something not good. I started to get a pain an hour after my recent doc appointment and not even 2 days later unable to eat or drink wihout being in pain and also not being able tO move much etc I went back for a check up and was admitted right away and given tons of meds to avoif infection whic might be causing my band pain

Good luck

the bites of food you eat before the pain... what are you eating? maybe its a food your band can't tolerate. mine happens to be hamburger.

are you eating tiny, tiny bites and c-h-e-w-i-n-g a lot?
