Severe gas pain

Hey guys just want to run this past you and see what you all think.

I am 9 months post op and down about 80lbs. I am absolutely happy and pleased with my surgery.

It has been mostly smooth sailing...until tonight. I have been having severe upper gas pain with constant belching but no relief of pain.

I have taken Gas x and tums and again no relief. I am calling my surgeon in the morning to see what they say. But I am nervous there is something wrong like a bowel obstruction or something else.

Anyone else experience this?

No nausea/vomiting and I have been having bowel movements.

This is so strange and out of the blue...hope it's nothing serious

Going to be a long night of pain, belching and pacing. Hopefully it will get better.

Thanks

Do you still have your gallbladder? I had horrible pain, and felt like I needed to burp when I had stones.

So sorry

Good luck

Thanks for the idea. I do still have my gall bladder. Finally after several hours and pacing last night, I took a pain pill and everything seemed to calm down. I was able to lie down, get comfortable and sleep. So far this morning I seem to be ok.

Have an email into docs office, so waiting to hear.

Thank you for the advice.
