I keep getting these pains in my stomach closer to my left side and it hurts like hell I'm just wondering if anyone has ever experienced this and if so did you find out what it was! I'm scared to death that I have a blockage or that my bowels are twisted! Any help would be appreciated!

I had the same and went in for a EGD and had scar tissue causing a slight blockage and they also found a peptic ulcer. I am on nexium and carrifiate and my doc dilated my opening to my stomach. I feel so much better. Still occasionally have pain but all in all better. I would contact my doctor. Hope this helps.

I've been having the Mae problems . I called my doctor this am she told me it might be the beging of an ulcer and told me to take my Prilosec twice Adam instead of once and if it doesn't go away in a month to call her cause it might be my gallbladder she didn't seem very concerned at all.. To bad I am very concerned lol

I had pain just like this and had surgery on 2-29-12 to fix a twisted bowel and Remove the scar tissue that formed. I was home the next day and back to regular activities in three weeks. Back to normal food in two weeks. I know it is scary I was throwing up for two months with it. My doctor did upper GIs and scopes to check just about every week before they found it. Hope you feel better soon and they find what is going on.

Yep much better dr said it was probably muscle pain from working out a lot and I also went to the NASCAR race the day before the pain started happening so I truly believe that it was muscle pain!

Hey I was searching for stomach pain and saw your post and was wondering you the pain you were feeling went away when you ate? That has been happening to me and I don't know what it is.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
