I've asked this before, but...

I have an ache in my stomach. It is not always constant. But, it comes and goes. It situated lower in my stomach. I had a burning pain and nausea before surgery and it was located below my sternum.

Could this be the same thing just lower, because they reshape the stomach with the sleeve?

I do not know how to describe it. Maybe it's a burning? I'm not sure. In any case it makes me feel ill for the moment.

Thank you for any input you may have.

Also, I see my PA in 6 weeks, so I definitely will bring it up. I was having ot before and discussed it with her at 2 months post-op and she said we may need to do a scope, which at this point I say YES!

Also, I'm almost 5 months post-op.

How intense is it? Is it sudden onset or always there? Either way, it's worth a note to your PA to ask the question and describe the symptom. Sorry for your struggle!

It feels a little more nauseating than a pain. It's random and I can't seem to pinpoint a reason why it happens. My PA said maybe it is a stomach cramp.

I feel it is not an emergency so I will just bring it up Aug 23 at my 6 month checkup.

Thank you for your response!?
