Almost 3 months out and starting to have pain, cramping feeling



Recommended Posts

Has anyone had this.....I'm almost 3 months out and all of a sudden having uncomfortable cramping and pain in my sleeve. It's almost like it was right after the surgery when my sleeve seemed grumpy and had to be retrained to eat again. I have done nothing I haven't been told to do and nothing significant has changed. Any thoughts would be great. Thanks!

Hmm.. if you're in severe pain, i would go back and see your doctor.

If it's just 'grumbly', have you tried going back to liquids/mushies/soft foods for a bit. Ideally not rich or spicy.. To see how you go?

Thank you. It's not severe. It's spasm like and pretty uncomfortable after I eat or drink but then calms down. It's right in the center of my belly, right below by breast bone. I did start back to the basic diet. I have also tried taking more gas meds and Zantac and nothing seems to help.

Did your doc prescribe a med to help "cramping" pain? Definitely call them and just say it's kinda started back up and wtf... Because it can be symptomatic of a problem. On the other hand it may be that some of the nerves in the stomach are growing back and letting you know how "thrilled" they are to have been damaged. ;)

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
