Back In Hospital At About 4 Weeks Out

I am back in the hospital . Yesterday afternoon I had a couple sips of a protein shake and was struck by a 45 minute episode of the most horrendous pain from the middle of my chest down about halfway to my belly button radiating to my back ribs. I had a shorter episode last night here in the hospital after they made me drink 500 mls for a ct scan. I am waiting on my surgeon to come in with a plan on figuring out what is wrong... I don't k ow hat it could be and I am hoping its not a leak or anything to do with my loop:(

The doc decided at the last minute the night before that he wanted to wait a little longer.My Bariatric Surgeon has been doing this a while and he just wanted to give my sleeve a little more time to do what it needed to do.None of the swallow studies or scopes gave any indication there was a problem with the sleeve itself.We waited and watched me eat in hospital and they rehydrated me and he sent me home a couple days later and I had a follow up 2 weeks after that.Things are much better I am just taking it day by day trying to get enough protein in:)

Thank god. Well I hope you keep getting better and your stomach stops trying to be vengeful! I'm glad your surgeon wasn't in a rush to cut and saved you a lot of problems!
