:confused2:Ok so i am 5 weeks post op. I have done great up until this morning when i woke up with this heavy feeling on my chest that radiates around to my back with movement. As i soon set up i started to get very nauseaed. I have been unable to eat much today. I have been able to drink some protein shakes and water today but nothing more. I havent had any fills yet, I go for my first fill on monday. Im not sure whats going on with me. Has anyone had this happen to them? Any and all advice will be welcome. Thanks in advance for all ur help. This sit is awesome and very helpful.:confused2:

I hope you feel better soon.

I got nauseus with my gallbladder and the pain radiated from the chest through my back. Gall stones are common for people who are losing alot of weight quickly.

If the pain gets worse, please call your doctor. If you can't keep fluids down, call too, or go to emergency room. Don't get dehydrated.

Take care and keep us posted.

This puts up a red flag for me. I think you should be calling your doctor.

Sorry to post on your question but apparently I need HELP... First time user. Can't figure it out. How do I start a new thread.

i had my gallbladder remove dlast november and ever since then i have had random episodes of gallbladder attack like pain, this is very similar but with my gallbalddder i was never nauseated just extremly unbearable pain. i think i might put a call in to my dr if it doent get better soon.

Please call your doctor (or go to the ER) It is probably nothing...but much better to err on the side of caution. Please let us know how you are doing.

I hope that you feel better soon,

Nessa38, I was trying to figure that out myself before. Go to the main page, and to the left where all of the topics are (like, "general Lap-Band discussion"), click on one of those topics, then near the top of the page in blue it will say "new thread", click on that and write away!

everyone is right. Probably best to check with your doc...BUT, my doc. told me that if I start having symptoms like you are experiencing to back up and go to the step I was in before the one that made me feel bad. In otherwords. I am only a week out and on clear liquids. I will go to full liquids tomorrow. If I feel bad I will go back to clear liquids for a day or two and try again. Hope that helps. Sounds like you might need to do that if you are keeping some foods that were OK before you went to the next phase.

Thanks for all the advice. I called my dr's office this morning and the first question the nurse asked was if i was preganant. I told her i was not and am almost 100% positive im not. If i am its a miracle of god.. But off that and on to waht she sadi was proably wrong. I was pre diabetic prior to surgery and she said that my sugars are proably jumping around and causing me to get nauseaed when i dont eat for a while. So now im am soupst to get a snack of fruit about an hour before bed and she if i stop having the really bad nausea inthe morings. She said that the pain is proably brought on by the nausea so to just keep a eye on it and they will see me monday. If it gets worse this weekend i am to got to the er. So thanks for all ur kind words last night ans today..
