Stomach Pain, ER Visit & Results: To much bending and squats!



Recommended Posts

The other day I am at work and this nagging dull pain in my stomach gets worse and travels. So I call the Dr. they send me to ER. Did a Ultra Sound Gallbladder clear, No leak in the staple line.... Come to find out the pain is a result of to much bending and squatting. Never in my life did I think I would have that problem. Anyone else experience this or something similar?

I had a situation a week or so ago where I had extremely sharp pains in my stomach. It was so bad I had to leave work. I drove home with my fist clenched because it hurt so bad. When I got home I tried to lay down but the pain wouldn't stop. I eventually took two pills of the pain meds prescribed following surgery. They eventually put me to sleep and when I woke, the pain was beginning to subside. The next day the pain was gone. I never figured out what caused the pain, I just assumed I ate something I shouldn't have e.g. rice. If the pain had not gone away I would have gone to the hospital.

Good to hear it wasn't something serious! I asked my doc because I was having tightness in my legs. He told me if you aren't getting enough Protein that can cause muscle aches. Also with MS I know too low potassium can lead to muscle cramps. Crazy what a slight deficiency can do to the body....

      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! 😞
