After a billion surgeries, feeding tube and PIC line I nearly died, I live in SC age four prescritions the rest is out of pocket . can never get my kepra filled thanks to insurance companies.Iver developed the seizurs agin and now I;ve devloped espohgaus spasims, This stomach thing is killing me.PP;L jinternet said valium works on itnot so sure This surgery I initiated was not smart, I don;t ahav energh one day that i don;t feel sick.

Im sick now because of it. So would I do it again,,NO. Do any of u have tricks for stopping this?/////

I'm so sorry this happen to you

Prayers for you...and a good reminder that this surgery has risks.

Sending prayers your way. I had my RNY 6/26/13 and have had nothing but complications since. I had emergency surgery 8/2/13 to repair a hole in my pouch from an ulcer that perforated my stomach. Found out that my stomach ulcers are so bad that the RNY surgery should have never been done. Yes I had and EGD prior to RNY which showed ulcers and two other medical terms I can't pronounce. My surgeon put me on pepcid for a couple weeks before surgery to calm things down but that didn't work and I should have never had the surgery. I am NPO on TPN with no end date in site. I completely regret ever having RNY or any of the surgeries at that. I did this so I would cure my diabetes and live a long healthy life for my husband, children amd family. Now they are suffering seeing and taking care of me. I can no longer drive. I have a pic line in my arm I can't tKe anything by mouth all my meds are IV. I had to quit my job and have applied for disability and have a long road ahead of me. There was not much discussion of risks and complications with the program i went through just the glory of it all. God bless you and best wishes.

i had my surgery on 08/09/13 and have been having pain in my left side every since. Do any one have an idea as to what this could be? I was readmitted back into the hospital on the 17 of this month and the hospital still don't know what is could be. this pain makes it had for to get up, go ti the restroom, walking, doing thing with my family. Please if you have experienced this please let me know.

Left side pain is something I have delt with since my RNY on 6/26/13. I have been told its due to the ulcers in my old stomach. I also have ulcers in my pouch pre and post op. My surgery should have never been done but I didn't know that. Nor did my surgeon stop it. Please read all my posts it may help.

Have you consulted a lawyer..this seems like the worst kind of malpractice.

Hi, I've just now found this post and I have to express how sorry I am you have been through all of this. WoW... You really have been through a lot!

I hope now that your life is better.

I had the sleeve 5/21/12. I had my gall bladder removed in March. I too have severe esophageal spasms and I know how painful these things are!!! I have severe bile reflux and gastrits. My complications though are no where near what you have suffered. My surgeon is trying to get me to do the GB to help with the GERD and spasms and now that I've read your post I know the RNY will not help with the spasms. I had already refused to do the RNY. I am taking levsin as well for the spasms. I can't sleep on either of one of my sides at night because if I do, I will get a spasms and you are so right, they make you feel like you are having a heart attack and feels like labor pains in my chest and right side!

How are you doing now with the spasms and your life in general. Again, I hope things are better for you.

God Bless!
