My surgeon said if I have any pain in my chest to contact them. Not saying it’s anything serious but I would definitely call to make sure.

I agree, worth a call to your doc. Hopefully it's just part of the healing process...

I agree with everyone. I generally get that same feeling when I’m full.

I had the same feeling after surgery, my doctor wanted to do an EKG to make sure all was well, but then she ran it by another doctor who stated this feel is totally normal and to keep walking and keeping hydrated! But yes call ur Doc, and best of luck!

I have a pain in my chest as well and at my post op appointment today my surgeon said it's a muscular thing and not to worry. The more walking I do and continual healing will eventually alleviate the discomfort. That's not to say yours is the same thing- you should definitely talk to your doctor about it!

      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! 😞
