Post Op Pain?

I'm 6 weeks post op and so far I've been happy but on Christmas Eve I went to the emergency room with stomach pains and this led to my gall bladder being removed. Nothing out of the ordinary but the night I went home I passed out and hit the floor. I went back to work yesterday after a week and the pain on the right side of my rib cage is out of control and the only thing that helps are pain killers. I hate these things but the doctor wants me to do another CAT scan. Thinks it's severe Constipation it a fall leak. I'm starting to lose confidence because the naasesu is out of control. It seems to be very co distant with back pain. I am still on soft food because I still can't eat solid food but I still get nauseated when I eat anything other than yogurt or oatmeal. Although I love the weight loss it's too much too fast. You would think that losing 40 lbs would make you feel better but I feel worse than I ever have. Has anyone experienced this or have any idea what this may be?

I'm so sorry to hear that you're having such trouble! I don't think any of us are in a position to know. I suggest you stick with your primary doctor and bariatric surgeon to get to the bottom of this to help you feel better soon. Please keep us up-to-date.

Looks like it was a hemotoba from the gall bladder surgery. I've never experienced so much pain in my life. Obviously, the gall bladder surgery was from the rapid weight loss from my sleeve surgery which was a little over 40 lbs in 5 weeks.

      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!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
