Thanks so much everyone for your advice and insight. I just got off the phone with my surgeons office and they are going to do an ultrasound on my stomach tomorrow morning. She mentioned on the phone it might be my gallbladder. I will let you all know what they decide is the culprit of all my pain!

What is the function of the gallbladder? Do I need it? Would they need to cut into my belly to take it out?

I do still have my gall bladder. I'm only 26. Never had issues with it in the past. What would case gall bladder problems? I've forced myself to throw up 3 times now and all that comes up are the tums and pepto I took. I've never felt pain like this in my life till I had surgery. I can't find an eating pattern or habit that may be causing it either. Should my pcp be ok to check me? Would they know the ins and outs of the sleeve? Or should I call my sleeve surgeon?

I had the sleeve June 2012 and ever since about every 3 months I get stomach pains that are beyond unbearable. I have to do paced breathing, I've tried making myself throw up, using the restroom, tums and pepto. Nothing seems to work. Has anyone else had this problem? I didn't have any complications after surgery. It went textbook. I am in so much pain right now. I don't know what to do. I've tried lying down, standing up, fetal position. Nothing seems to help. It eventually goes away, but ends up lasting between 4 to 6 hours each time Has anyone else has such horrific stomach pains??

I was sleeved on 6/05/2012 and have not lost ANY weight. I lost 40 lbs before I was sleeved and that is it. I have read a lot about Water intake but I haven't actually tried increasing my intake. I don't track my food but I also don't over eat. I listen to my body very well. I don't think I consume more than 800 calories a day if I actually decided to add them up. Does anyone have any advice?
