Please Help!

Has anybody experienced a wave of squeezing discomfort in their stomach pouch that radiates to their back? I'm 4 weeks post Op sleeved and this week this symptom has popped up. I'm having trouble pin pointing what it could be. It does it when I'm not eating throughout the day. I'm so scared. I'm trying to hold off going to the ER. Could it be Gas? Or something ?

I'm not at liberty to give medical advice on what it could be or not but if you hadn't already put a call in to your surgeon I would encourage you to. I don't mess with pains that don't feel normal after having major surgery like this. thats me :/..one qustion..are you getting your fluids in throughout the day and protein? thats all Im going to ask..

Do you still have a gall bladder? The radiating pain sounds like a gall bladder issue...but yes, put a call into your doctor as soon as you can if it continues.

Yes I still have my gallbladder. I'm calling my doc tomorrow morning. I just took 3 tums and it calmed down alot. Could it just be my acid reflux acting out
