I thought I was having a heart attack



Recommended Posts

Holy moly! TMI warning ahead. The pain in my chest and back this morning was the most frightening thing I have every gone through. Apparently, forgetting to take my birth control pill last night and slugging it down first thing this morning caused my sleeve to wage a full scale attack! About a hour later I had vise-grip pain below my breastbone through my back. I got dizzy/weak and wasn't sure if I should sit, lay down or just pray for sudden death. I literally had the phone in my hand to call 911. I was sure I was having a heart attack. And then it came. The dry heaves like I see the cat perform before delivering a hair ball. More TMI alert- feel free to stop here. Then, I puked and pooped at the same time. It was horrible!!! I call my sleeve, Sleevie and now know she is a girl because she is a complete, effing bi-otch! I kind of hate her right now. Oh and my Dr says I need to go back to clears and then full liquids until she calms down. Damn you Sleevie!

Oh no!!!! Hope she chills out soon. I did something similar. But I didn't have the dual action that you did... I just had to sit up for about 45 minutes until the pain stopped.

Hope your feeling better soon!!!

PS for every sleever that had nausea and vomitting in the days, weeks, or months after surgery: I apologize for every post I made these past 5 weeks about my uneventful recovery experience, having never vomitted, tolerating everything I eat, etc because now I know the misery!

      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! 😞
