So I'm 2 weeks post -op and today,I felt like I was dying. My chest felt a sharp piercing pain when I breath and my stomach felt like it was about to explode. On top of that I was nauseous the whole day and I had pain all over my legs. I did walk to see if that would help but the pain continued... I was about to go to the ER but I took the meds and pass out. When I woke up the pain was still there but not as strong.... has anyone felt like that before? Or had that chest pain where it hurt when breathe like shortness of breathe?

That doesn't sound normal. You should still go in or at least call an advice nurse. I hope you get to feeling better soon.

Yes, seek medical attention. However, I also had the same pain on day 6 and it turns out it was just gas (and a lot of it too!). It was so strange because it came out of no where. Either way, everyone is different so I still strongly suggest you go to an ER.

What product did you take to manage the gas and bloating? I was sleeved 6/15. Hope you're feeling better.

      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?

      April Surgery
      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! 😞
