Hi guys! I was sleeved on April 19th. It was a revision from a gastric plication that I had complications with. It's now day 6, and in general I feel pretty good.. I am having one weird symptom though that is really worrying me. I still have general stomach pain that feels like it's my stomach healing up where they sliced.. But, once in a while, I am getting a really strong stabbing/burning pain. It comes on suddenly and it especially happens around 4am-6am when I am asleep. Wakes me up out of a dead sleep! And it keeps on happening intermittently until I sip on something. I have noticed that if I have some Soup or Water, it helps, but it's very painful and frustrating. I am so scared it's a leak!??? Maybe it's just stomach acid? Hunger pangs? I don't know! Has anyone else had any experiences like this?

no but what is revision from gastric plication ? PLEASE

A plication is like a sleeve, but no stomach tissue is removed. It is kinda hard to explain, but, if you google it, you can see what it looks like They kinda fold your stomach into itself and suture it that way.

Yes. I had sleeve surgery on April 18th and I have that same off and on pain on my left side. I don't believe it's a leak though. I've been following the rules and I'm not 100% sure but I believe things would be a lot worse if there was a leak.
