strange pain once a month



Recommended Posts

so for the 2nd time, about 5 days b4 my period, i get what feels like heartburn or stabbing pain right between my chest. it hrts when i breath and i feel pressure and it hurts.

I went running to my surgeon yesterday cuz i was scared.

Fluids go down just fine, and and i only eat 1 meald a day and thats the night b4.

Soooooo my surgeon said right off the bat its NOT my band, since things can pass through thats a def sign it not the band. he gave me a xray and i swalloed stuff and saw everything was fine, he actully said i could use a fill, im at 7cc and im wide open ( great)

BUT what i can figure out is this. I had bought new bras at Lany Braynt, since then that is when it started. Now us ladies know Layne Bryant does not sell bras, they sell BOULDER HOLDERS LOL , but they have a wiwde band across the middle, AND when i take my bra off, about 20 mins later I am FINE????? i am assume that from my pms my boobsswell, well i know they do, but maybe the swelling of the boobs mixedwith a tighter big banded bra over my band????

ANYBODY ELSE HAVE THIS??? so far it seems i have the 1% of things that never happen to people happen to me lol

ANYBODY ELSE????? Id love to hear feedback PLEASE :huh:

Frist off, you need to eat more than once a day. Your body needs the Protein in order to loose good. I have swelling every month with pms. My band also gets tighter during this time put I know after a few days it will loosen back up. I would try a different bra, maybe without under-wire during this time and see if it helps.

It maybe the wire in the bra. I can't wear underwire bras. The wire sits right on top of where my port is. I kept getting strange pains when I wore my bra, when I took it off it was fine. I mentioned it to the Dr. and he said it's your bra. So I don't wear underwire bras anymore. Which is very hard to find.

Lane Bryant is not the best place to buy a bra. Go to Leggs and get measured and you can buy a good bra that fits for the same price. Good luck!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
