Help!! What's Wrong With Me???



Recommended Posts

So all of a sudden I feel this tightening and pain in my upper stomach (middle, under my breasts) and it goes all the way to the back. It got so bad I can't even sit or lay down. I don't know what is wrong, I haven't eaten anything, but the last time I ate (yesterday) I did get stuck pretty bad.

This happened before, on a weekend too. I had to deal with it all weekend until I got in to see Dr on Monday morning they did an unfill, and everything was fine after that. The pain was terrible and I wasn't able to eat anything all weekend long. I have since had a small fill

I just called my clininc, but they are closed till Monday. Does anyone have any suggestions for me? I don't want to go through this again. The only good thing about it before was that I lost 9 lbs that weekend, but so not worth it.

HELP!!

Have you had your gall bladder checked out? It sounds like it could be gall bladder related.

The other possibility is reflux, try taking a reflux remedy.

Or you could still have some food stuck and/or your band may have slipped .

Are you able to drink? If you can't drink you need to go to emergency as dehydration is dangerous.You could try sucking crushed ice as if you are swollen it will help to reduce the swelling and that may help to ease the pain .

Thank you.

I'm not sure what it was, but it went away as suddenly as it came on.

      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! 😞
