I had my sleeve surgery on April 26, 2019. Today is the 30th. Everything has been great since surgery except for one thing!! Periodically I have spasms/cramps in my stomach. It's not my incisions but inside. They only happen for a few seconds and then they go away. Sometimes they come back every few minutes. And other times it will be a few hours. Why do I feel these pains? They are getting really annoying!! Any advice would be awesome!

Try warmer liquids. I couldn't do sugar free popsicles or cold drinks as they caused spasms. Good luck.

I have tried warmer liquids. Maybe I should write everything down and see if something is triggering it. When did the spasms finally go away?

The spasms stopped as soon as I stopped drinking really cold stuff. I drink cool stuff fine now. But have a severe stricture and ulcers, so thats a whole other story!@

I have a problem with my stomach. I went to see the PA Nd she said it sounded like stomach spasms. It's hard to explain it. It is not constant. It's a deep ache and feeling nauseous. it only lasts about 5 seconds and goes away.

I'm not sure if your sounds like mine.

If I still have it in e more weeks they will do an endoscopy to take a look. Btw I'm 9 weeks out.

I hope we both figure out what is going on!

That's how long mine last! Except I haven't been nauseous at all. I'm not sure what it is. I see my surgeon Monday so I'll ask him about it! I hope we get it figured out! I'm not miserable but it's definitely a little painful and annoying!

I had my surgery March 11 my first week I had the spasms also and vomited but they went away after the first week just make sure to drink slow and when you start purée foods start off timing each bite by five minutes

Update!! I called my drs office and asked about it. A nurse called me back. She told me it could be a sign of me getting constipated. I took milk of magnesia and I was able to go to the bathroom and haven't had any "spasms" since!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
