If you are having chest pain that radiates to your left arm you need to call 911.

Constant pain is not normal, in my opinion. Call your doctor and/or go to the ER. Better to be safe than sorry. Good luck and be well.

Call 911 - it's better to be embarrassed by a false alarm - than not call and be fighting for your life!

I'm going to guess they are looking for a leak. Of course, how long ago were you sleeved? It could also be pain from the gas post surgery if you were sleeved recently.

I hope everything is ok! Keep us posted!

The blood work back and something was high suggesting it might be a blood clot so they are going to do a cat scan to make sure it's not

I have the same pain in same location. They found I have a hematoma from surgery. Nothing the can do but give u antibiotics to prevent infection. The hema is between my pancreas and stomach but causes most discomfort in my chest radiating to left arm. It sucks!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
