I had GBS on June 12, 2013. I've been doing great, no problems at all. We are visiting relatives out of state this holiday and for dinner I had a 1/2 a small baked potato with some regular sourcream on it and some squash casserole that probably wasn't low fat. That was 5 hours ago and I am in so much pain I am starting to think I need to go to the emergency room. I have taken 2 percocet and it still hasnt let up. Could fatty food make me feel this awful? I was doing fine all day until after dinner. I thought if it was the food the pain would have subsided by now. Could a ulcer hurt this bad? or even gallbladder? all of that was fine during my GBS. Any input would be appreciated.

Yes fatty foods can make you hurt like that you could get some Papaya Enzimes they really help when you eat something that doesn't set good on your stomach there in the Vitamin section

When I over eat I get into sooo much pain that literally have to make myself throw up before I start feeling better.. Maybe try that?

The same thing happened to me... I fing myself so focused on sugar I forget about the fat content in regular food (not fried) I had to leave the party in a hurry the pain was so horrible. I'm learning as I go, but I hate when things like that happen. I felt better last night I didn't eat anything else I drank 4 glasses of Water (trying to wash it away) and I was ok

Hope u get better really soon!

Yes that happened to me. Take some pepto! It will go away. It's probably extreme gas pains.

Three weeks out is probably a little early for solid foods. Has your doctor cleared you for solids?

She cleared me for solids at my two week post-op. I think I'm going to go back to soft foods only for awhile.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
