I am five months post and I lost 54 pounds to date. Over the last five days, my stomach has been killing me. I can't eat more than a few tablespoons of food before I feel like I have to throw up. I've also had a lot of sharp pains running throughout my stomach. It's getting to the point where my stomach hurts even when I drink liquids? Has anyone ever felt this way before? I'm really concerned.

I had this same thing and my dr prescribed me Prilosec. It didn't help. The pain was so severe I went to the ER. The Dr said it was GERD and I said I was already taking Prilosec. She said not all medicines for reflux are the same and prescribed me Pepcid AC 20mg twice a day. Since that day the pain hasn't returned. So if you are already on something for acid and you still have pain, maybe it's the wrong med for you. We are all different.

Have them check your gallbladder. I was 7 months out. Started having similar symptoms. Things went south fast! Ended up with having emergency surgery to have my gallbladder removed.

After almost a year of sever vomiting episodes, weeks and weeks of missed school and I don't even know how many dr visits my daughter was diagnosed with gerd. In addition to medication she was put on the BRAT diet for a while and still has to be careful about what she eats. It took drs almost a year to diagnose her.

Hello. I have pain 2 years out and it may just mask the problem but Phenergan has been a huge help because I just stopped vomiting after 2 years. It allows me to get food down and stay down but since my sleeve is to small it takes all day to get in Proteins and fluids. It doesnt have any side effects to me and I cannot hardly tolerate most medication. Hope you are better real soon so you can start enjoying your new journey :)

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.

      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!!
