Starting my journey

I just had my gastric sleeve on 8/29/2017

I was completely miserable the first 2 weeks, now that I'm in my 3rd week feeling better other then having esophagus muscle spasms that really hurt at times. I have only lost 13lbs, very disappointed it isn't more. Is this normal?

Also feeling sharp pains in my right side, not sure why unless again this is some kind of muscle spasms. Any advice?

    Hi. Im sorry ur not feeling well. I think the best thing to do is call ur doc and describe whats happening. Are u following the eating guidelines?

    Yes, I have followed every guidelines that was given to me, I finally did call Dr.
    And he prescribed medication for my esophagus spasms and he said the pain in my side is also just another muscle spasms that will eventually go away. Really didn't know who to talk with, or what to do, or if this has happened to anyone else. Found this site looking for advice, but definitely glad I called my surgeon. Thank you very much for helping:0)
