Hi All,

I was banded on July 29 and go for my 1st fill on Wed. I didn't suffer too much gas pain after surgery but about a week ago I started having gas that radiates up to my jaw and into my temple - feels like brain-freeze. I have this all the time - when I wake up, before I eat and after I eat.

Has anyone else had this and if so, is it really gas and how can I get it to stop. :smile:

This also happens when I bend over.

I am so glad you posted this!~ EVERY morning when I wake up I feel that same kind of pressure below my ear (usually left) and jaw. It feels like some type of gas/pressure and I try and swallow or yawn to make it go away. I am really interested to see what other people say!

being a person that has had a lot of tooth issues I would say it is a tooth problem.. sometimes you can have an absess that you are unaware of that causes lots of pressure..just a suggestion.. cause it sounds kinda weird that it would be gas there..

you may want to have it checked out.

if it is a tooth it would be bothering you when you wake up because of the balance change and the pressure change in your head from the blood replacing itself and after u eat because of the pressure of chewing.. or when you move a lot

just a thought

I just read the last line of your post and I would definately say its a tooth.. because it hurts when you get extra pressure in your head when you bend over and the blood rushes there.

      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! 😞
