Did I pull something



Recommended Posts

I had a weird pain this afternoon as I was stretching after my workout. I felt a pull in my chest, about three inches below the breastbone. I stopped as soon as I stopped the stretch and I haven't had any pain since. Has anyone had a similar experience. The nurse said if I didn't have continuing pain I probably hadn't damaged anything but I am still concerned.

Thanks for any insight!

I have a that problem too. I am a little over 3 weeks after surgery and can't stretch my back with out pain in my chest. I asked my doctor and he said its not a problem, but I am concerned. Any clues?

I stopped doing that stretch on the doctor's office's suggestion. I am six weeks out now and can do it with no problem. I haven't had a fill yet so I have no idea if I pulled anything but at this point I am losing weight and feel great so I am hoping for the best. I think if i had damaged anything I would have continued to have pain. I have my first fill on Thursday so I am anxious to see what it looks like under the flourescope.

Good luck to you.

      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! 😞
