Oh yeah, I still have my gall bladder
-
I was banded 4/24 and have had I fill. My stomach hurts all the time even before the fill. It hurts when it's empty. It hurts when it's full. Does anyone have this problem? Any ideas? I want some relief:( How do you keep the stomach gas down? Could it just be a constant build up of gas? It feels like muscle pain both top and bottom but never together. Like a weight is sitting near my belly button. I don't know how else to describe it.

Do you feel guilty if you eat a not so healthy food, even if it keeps you in your calorie range???

I'm a 2 nd grade teacher 6 days post op. I tried to return To work today. Bad idea! The gas pain was horrible. I thought the walking would do me good. Yeah, no. I took more pain meds at work than I have at home. Soo I'm going to wait a few more days and try again. What did other teachers do?

rebirth198 replied to Yoly778's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm a teacher in the south suburbs of Chicago. I went back Monday felt awful from gas pain. So I took two more days off. I hv my 1st post op appt tomorrow. Going back to work Thursday. -
I feel like I'm the only one hungry;( it seems like all the time. Which is new for me because I'm a under eater. I hv always prefered to drink my meals so the liquid diet has been easy. But the hunger pains every few hrs I didn't expect. I thought I would be full longer. I see the dr tomorrow on my 8 th day post op. I'm ready for more food just to feel full. Any guesses as to why I'm always hungry???

Great! I'm always looking for suggestions. 110? That's awesome.

When To Call The Doctor???
rebirth198 replied to rebirth198's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks guys the peppermint tea worked really quickly. I also got a back massage that helped to move it around too. Ifit happends again I'm trying the "toot" juice:) I also like the movement from being in the car. -
Ok it's been 4 days of chest pain from gas. Why can't they just take it out!!! Walking didt help eating hurts because I feel full. My heart rare changes. Omg I'm so miserable I can't belch. Talked to a massage therapist today and she said the gas can cause a heart attack!!! What now? Do I call the dr?

I don't eat the bits in the soup. Try rocking for chest pain and watch you body position -

Took a hot shower and it worked wonders for the gas pain. Now I'm trying this rocking method cause walking didn't matter. Best of luck
