7 Days out and I still wake up with sharp pains in my chest. I know it must be gas, but so uncomfortable. How long before this disappears?

I was sleeved May 6th and it took a little over a week for me.. I walked and walked and walked but it seemed to be stuck . But it finally went away. Good luck and hope you feel better soon. It does get better :)

do you still have the drain in? As soon as they took it out my pain went away. It was not gas like i was told.

Try putting some heating pads on the area, I know they helped me a lot!

Be well…

Update on chest pains and suggestions if anyone else is having the same problem.

DR said its mucus that gets caught, causes lightheaded ness, to solve use breathing thingy every two hours. Worked like a charm, although it does come back overnight. This and inactivity cause pneumonia. So keep breathing Sleevers!

I had Gas pain for the first 2 weeks. I quickly found out a lot of my problems were a result of calcium chews. I haven't tried Calcium only Suppliments since I figured it out. I am terrified of how it made me feel. But I know I need calcium in addition to my multi Vitamin

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
