I was sleeved 7/21/14 and I'm still in quite a lot of pain. It feels like internal pain rather than incisions, and it's not gas pain. I do get gas pains a lot though. Mostly my pain is in the middle of the night, or when standing up. I also feel dizzy quite often, and no energy. I'm on clear liquids and 2-3 protein shakes per day. Any advice?

Try a laxative to see if it's extreme gas?

I was also sleeved on 7-21-14 and I to am extremely dizzy. I had an upper GI test done yesterday and got the results today. My surgeon informed me out of 500 surgeries I was his first mistake. My sleeve was made to narrow so the food won't stay down. I don't have any good advice for you but you are not alone. Good luck to you I hope you feel better soon!

I was sleeved on 7/18/14. Doing better this week. I am still having discomfort in my low left quadrant of my abdomen. Understand how u feel, my dizziness had gotten better since introducing semi-solids. Hope u feel better soon! You might need to call your doctor, have you had your follow up yet?

@ Jenna1985, I'm so sorry to hear about your complication. How do they propose to correct this "mistake"?

I havnt read the thread just ur first...I am having issues with the chronic fatigue still...have for yrs..I'm 4 wks out but I have several autoimmune diseases I have to pace myself. I take the vitamins an I give myself a b12 shot wkly...I still do protein drinks...hope u get better soon..

I have three options none if which are appealing. First they are going to try an endoscopy to try and widen the sleeve. If that isn't successful they will have to cut a hole in the sleeve and worst case they will have to cut out more of my stomach and intestines like a bypass patient. I'm starting to ask myself why me???

That's terrible, Jenna. I'm so sorry. I hope the doctor is able to fix it. I'll keep you in my thoughts.

=(

So terribly sorry Jenna. Prayers that whatever decision is reached, it is the best choice to restore your health and get you on the road to recovery. Hugs.
