Im constantly having pains in my chest. Feels like Im having a heart attack every 2 minutes. Taking tons of vitamins and meds but seriously Im over it already. please help me!!!

The pains in your chest may be gas. You should try taking GasX strips and see how you feel after

I cried and cried and cried most of the first week about having the surgery. I wanted to put up my dukes to anyone who pat my back and told me it would get better.

Ohhhh what a difference a few days makes!!! Im only 9 days out and I'm feeling MUCH better. Just walk!!!!!!!!!!

Oh the gas pains. You lean to one side it moves to your shoulder. You lay down it moves to the top of your chest. The more I moved and walked the more it disappeared. Hang in there it does go away.

Did your Dr tell you to take one pill and wait 5-10 minutes before you take another? That's what I did. I also did not have to take my pain meds or stool softner after I came home, so that was 2 pills I eliminted. Just hang in there, it does get better. I had my surgery March 4th and was wondering the same thing that first week, because I had horrible nausea. I now feel GREAT! So don't give up.

Try walking more... It helps a ton with the gas pains i learned in the hospital

WALK WALK WALK.. It's the only way to get rid of the gas. Your chest pains could also be that your intake is being consumed too rapidly or too much. Even if you think you're just sipping, that may be too fast at this time for you. You're still swollen from surgery so you need to adjust things until ou figure things out.

Yes! At 2 days out, I was sipping 1/8 of an ounce at a time and I'd still get some pain. But not as much as with a 1/4 cup!

err.. ounce.

THANKS EVERYONE ..I'VE BEEN HAVING A LOT OF TROUBLE DEALING WITH THE CONSTANT PAIN. IT IRRITATES ME AND I JUST WANT TO PINCH MYSELF AND WAKE UP THE OLD ME. WELL NOT WITH THE EXTRA POUNDS BUT JUST HAVING THE ABILITY TO EAT WHAT I CRAVE AT THAT TIME.

IM HOPING THIS IS NORMAL BEHAVIOR ...MINDSET. I'VE NEVER HAD TO GO THROUGH THIS BEFORE.

Totally normal. TOTALLY normal. You hear me? You're right where you should be.
