Strange Feeling...Anyone Know???



Recommended Posts

I posted this in another thread, but it was related to PB'ing, and I don't think that's what I'm doing.

So last night, I made a "creamsicle drink" and it had lots of orange rind in it from the marmalade. So I strained it, but I think there were still a few tiny pieces in it. So about an hour or so after, I started feeling these strange sensations in my chest, not really my stomach, a little higher, and I could feel the pressure or something coming up, or just moving, and I don't think it was gas. Then this weird sensation moved up in my jaw/mouth, and it would make me feel the need to yawn, or burp, or just try to make it go away. It didn't hurt, just very annoying, and it kept happening for several hours, all the way until I went to bed. It's SO weird, I've never done this before.

I woke up and I wasn't doing it at all. So I took a shower, and while I was in the shower, yep, it did it again. Am I crazy or something? What the heck is this? I've been up now for a few hours and it's only done it maybe 3 times so far this morning, but it's driving me crazy. It's almost like a yawning sensation but I feel it in my chest too.

Please, if any of you have the slighest idea of what this might be, I'd love to know. :confused2:

To be on the safe side, you should call your doctor ASAP! You're still a "young-un", but the symptoms you're describing sound heart related since the pain is going up into the jawline. Don't wait - call and rule it out!

Did you find out what was going on? Your symptoms sounded heart related to me as well.

First, thanks for trying to figure this out with me guys! I really don't know what was going on. I did it a few more times yesterday, but then it just went away. I knew it wasn't heart related, simply because something would come up in my esophogus, sometimes just a weird feeling, sometimes a burp. The only thing I had done differently was have that "creamsicle shake". I think that possibly some of the orange skins that weren't strained had gotten down in my pouch or my esophogus and maybe were causing me to burp, or possilby try to pb, I'm still not 100% sure.

I do know two things though. I will never make another shake out of Marmalade (it was gross) and second, I am SO GLAD IT STOPPED! :)

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
