Thought I was doing well but no...



Recommended Posts

I've really been doing well since surgery, getting all my Protein and fluids in with little problem. The only problem I have is ever since surgery my incision that the doc removed my stomach has been extremely painful and I've had a severe pain in my right middle back that won't go away. I went in for my 2 week post op appointment and the Doctor said there is no way you can be having gallbladder problems this soon! But sent me for an ultrasound anyway. Just my luck, I have to have my gallbladder out next week. Geez Louise, this happen to anyone else?

wow so sorry! I wonder why they didn't take it out during your switch surgery? Unless you didn't have stones pre op? I am going ask my surgeon if he plans to remove mine. I have a couple gall stones so I am hoping he does and its safe.

Yes! I had my gallbladder out years ago and I didn’t realize how much it had been affecting me until it was gone! I bet you will be feeling better quite soon!

Angy, had you ever had gall bladder pain before weight loss surgery? I have had pain but it went away as long as I watch what I eat... another thing to tell my surgeon before surgery! ughh

I thought I did once but it was not like this, so maybe not. This pain is bad and constant. I cannot get relief in any position and right now I'm still on full liquids so not eating any fatty foods. I'll just be glad when it's over!!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
