MCD

gall bladder removed years ago. I stay away from fats as much as possible. Thank u evryone. Did anyone still have pain in stomach lower rib area 4 weeks out?

Also, heating pad good or bad?

Thanks everyone, feeling better but weak and still having stomach cramp/pain, and sore if I push on it. Almost like a pulled muscle where they removed lap band port.

Thanks, trying liquids today and calling doc in A.M. feeling much better than last night.

4 weeks out drank a sweet drink tonight. Caused vomiting, bad stomach pain when touch area around large incesion on left, pain when moving. Stomach just hurts. should I go back on all liquads for a few days?

Chocolite makes yummy flavors and if u mix any with Fat Free milk WAY BETTER than Water......

I love Silk also. It is really good mixed with protein makes it creamy and taste great. Never mix mine with water. Your doing great. Good luck.

Have an appt. with him in the a.m.

still having pain under left rib cage. dull ache all the time sharp pains sometimes. Getting in fluids, vitiams, and most of protein. Eating pureed and still shakes for protein. Having problems with constapation, and energy leave, not sleepy just blah. Had lap band revison, still better than lap band. But tired of pain and discomfort. Any help thought are welcome. Thanks

same having to take something everyday. As far as color and form I am not the same, but dont worry unless black and tar looking. Protein shakes can make it weird looking. Don't go to long u don't want to get a blockage.

I am 3 weeks out going from band to sleeve. Still have pain under left rib cage. Just started pureed and hurts under shoulder. Have no energy. Trying to get everything in(protein, fluids) but makes me uncomfortable. Also, still have nausea issuse. Anyone else have this at 3 weeks?

I am also 3 wks out and still have pain. I also have high pain tolerence. Lots of health issues before I lost weight. Having pain after eating(mushies) or drinking thick protein shakes. I also have pain when stretching or moving a certian way. My Doc says it's taking longer to heal because of revison from band. Ready NOT to be in pain. But glad to be rid of band.

I am alitte over 3 weeks out and have sharp pains also. After sharp pain I have like a dull pain the rest of the day. Is it muscle where port was or is it new stomach? I got same response to rest all weekend.

I still have pain. Not as much this week, but mine was in the area where lap band port was removed. Getting better but not 100% yet. Good luck

I have had alot of nausea everyday. Three wks out today. It happens after I drink shake in morning and evening. Still taking medicine for it. But soooo much better than lap band. No regrets, just ready to get over this part of healing.... Still not getting all my protein and calories are still around 450 a day. Milk made me really sick so no using in shakes right now using silk. Going to try milk this week. Ready to go to mushies. Maybe that will help nausea.
