I was sleeved on 2/12 and I've noticed that after I swallow purée food because that's the stage I'm on now I feel like a cramp I guess that's the best way to describe it but it feels like its at the bottom of my stomach I thought I was eating to fast but I've been timing my bites and using baby spoons until I get the hang of it I've been waiting a min of two minutes between bits I'm worried I have a leak or stricture for those of you who have had these problems what were your signs and symptoms ? What made you thinks something was wrong? When I had a lapband my port flipped and had band slippage and my symptoms were different from what my doc said and what I researched so I would love to hear from others experiences

I was sleeved on Jan 10th one week form surgery I developed a leak I was taken by ambulance and stayed 5 days in hospital .They did not have to go back in but I could not eat for 2 days and then they put a pic line in .If you have a leak you will know you get the most horrible pains up your shoulders and get very clammy and weak .I turned gray and my blood sugar shot way high and pulse went way low .Good luck to you as of today I still feel kinda crappy after I eat but it is getting better.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
