Sounds like a gallbladder attack too

Or heartburn

Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

Heartburn really? Even though I'd eaten nothing in 3 days?? It was worse than a gallbladder attack I know that much it's was horrendous, I've been getting numb legs and hands to and passed out a few times :-(

Oh are you OK? Do they know what's wrong yet?

Hope they figure out the problem. Best Wishes

Sounds like a swollen ouch which led to a panic attack and low blood sugar from not eating. Something similar happened to me at 3weeks out.

I thought gallbladder at first but then you said you had yours removed. I also had my gallbladder removed 10 wks. after my RNY... and I still get really bad pains across my chest kind of under my boobs. I am going for a CT scan next week. My doctors said that there could still be stones left in the ducts, during surgery they try to clean all the ducts out but if there is a tiny, tiny stone it could still grow. I would consult with your doctor ASAP, something does not sound right.

Hi thanks for replying x I have been on the the hospital this afternoon and they told me to go in tomorrow as soon as I can hoping they might stick a camera down my throat to see what's going on, I thought today apart from the chest pain which was debilitating, it's very like the pain I experienced when they filled my old band up way too much had forgotten about it till my mum came over, I take a sip and after about 10-15 seconds this noise travels back up my throat and into my mouth and the pain :-( I thought I'd had all the crap life could throw at me with the crap band if I have to change my name to bariatric op number 5 I'm going to be sooo pissed :-(((( x

It's crazy that you're having the numb limbs too. Sooo scary. I'm waiting on lab results now, hoping its just low b12 and not something really bad.
