OMG. I just read this thread. Don't worry about a leak. My surgeon said its virtually unheard of after 7 weeks. I really hope your pain is easing. Have you tried doing some relaxation exercises just to try and relax yourself a little. Hope you get some help from your surgeon. By the way, your man is soooooo cute! You make a really good looking couple.

Sending all my positive thought and love from us Aussies.

I had to have my gall bladder removed years ago after losing weight. The first ER doc missed it. Ask for an ultrasound. It sounds like the pain I had. Feel better!!

Sounds like you need a muscle relaxer to feel better at home. Don't be a martyr! If you are uncomfortable, say something !!! That's why there is medicine!

Keep in touch

X-ray Will not diagnose your gallbladder it needs to be an ultrasound

Like others have said,thr only way to diagnose gall bladder problems is thru an ultrasound.

My goodness how am I just seeing this? So sorry to hear you're hurting, love :( I know how scary it is. Bloodwork wouldn't diagnose a leak. A CT would show an abscess, a barium swallow would show a leak, even an upper GI would. Are you on something for anxiety? I know when my chest hurts, I freak out and it makes the whole situation worse. Keep us updated, dear!

Went to my surgeons office and she was PISSED that the er didn't give me an ultrasound so she ordered one ASAP which is what I'm waiting for now. She also is going to get an ultrasound of my chest as well because of the pain. She said that its not a leak so thank god for that. God let me be ok. You guys are amazing. My sleeve family is kick ass.

      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! 😞
