As I'm slowly eating things, which now is only maybe once a day, but my doctor gave me something to help me eat. I am confused as to if I am having hunger pains or pains when I eat. To me they both have seemed similar but I am not sure. Now I am eating dinner and when I chew then swallow I get pains shortly after, but if I don't eat the pain is still there. So I am not sure the pain is there because I'm hungry and I'm getting food in or is it pain telling me to stop. When I chew I always wait at least 40 seconds before I put more food in.

It turns out that I have acute pancreatitis, my doctor just called me and I am going to be admitted in the morning.

I've started my pureed's and it says that I can eat tuna fish, can this be eaten with crackers or is that a no?

Did they tell you what was wrong. I am currently going through this now and my doctors are at a loss. The tests say everything is fine but I am in pain and can't eat or drink.

I went to see my doctor this morning. The scan came back clear but I am in tremendous pain. I don't know what else to do at this point.

I am at the doctors now waiting for my doctor to come in and tell me what they want to do next. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

@@Inner Surfer Girl I was taking dexilant for acid reflux before surgery, my doc told me to just continue that. Yes I had a hiatal repair and this just started yesterday, I haven't been able to call them because their office is closed on Friday's

@@Inner Surfer Girl I am 3 weeks out, I'm pureed's right now. The "pain" will come whether I have Water or applesauce. and I don't know what PPI is sorry

@@KindaFamiliar Its kind of like a pain but also like before surgery and I hadn't eaten. My doctor told me that I wouldn't feel the growl or hungry anymore but I feel like I do. I can drink Water and it start, sometimes its like a pulsing pain and others it feels like I'm hungry, but when I do eat its still there. I don't see my doctor until the 28th

@@cindyw41 Thanks, I'll look at it now

@@LipstickLady yes I know that I can't eat them now, I was saying thank you for telling me about them

@@SilentBotts there is not much that i can have, for the last 3 days I haven't had anything because it just comes back up and today Water started making me sick. They gave me zofran to see if that will help with it.

@@libby43 I didn't even think of cucumber thank you

They gave me a book but it said nothing about eating or not eating it. Today is day 3 that I haven't been able to eat anything and this morning Water made me sick, But thanks I'll try to get a hold of my doctor again.

I know that I am still early out and have at least 3 more weeks before I eat solid foods, but when did everyone start eating salads. I have been wanting one and I don't want to hurt myself eating one too soon.

@@Ley I still have some problems having some things, some times I'll think I'm in the clear then I feel it coming back up and I have to force myself to vomit. I can only handle Water and nothing else but I am still getting dehydrated because I can't get enough liquids in.

I just had my sleeve done May 25, 2016. I am absolute pain. I feel like I have a lot of pressure on my chest and I'm having a hard time swallowing. When I do swallow I feel like I am being stabbed and when I called my doctor they gave me medicine and said to wait and see if it helps. Well now I am in more pain and I'm at a loss. Right now I am deeply regretting having this done. ANY suggestions will help me!

@@VeroN86 Yes I am thank you, I am now able to start going to my pureed foods so I can eat at least a little but

@@FocusOnMeNow they gave me carafate, they said to take it a hour before each meal and it should help but it hasn't. Its suppose to "coat" my stomach to help with digesting

@@debd80 Mine is just about like that as well. They said it was acid reflux too but I take my medicine so I know its not that, I had acid reflux bad before the surgery and was on Dexilant, stronger than nexium. Its kind of like I need to burp but it won't come out too, they said it was gas but I am burping and passing gas all the time. But I do know that I need to eat more I am not sure if the pain is from that but when I try to "eat" the pain gets worse. It feels like the liquid is stuck at the top of my stomach trying to get in, then I vomit.

@@perforce what kind of Soup would be good with cheese, I am about to start adding the pureed foods and I am at a loss as what to eat, they gave me a book but all most of it says is cottage cheese and I don't like that lol I am afraid that it will take longer for me to actually eat, and when i see people eat "real" food I cry lol

@@perforce I am still on liquids. I am not eating "food"

@@NjGirlInNcWorld they gave me carafate which doesn't do much at all. I had some food today and it just made me sick. I am going back on Monday for them to do a CT scan to make sure everything is okay.

I take acid reflux medicine daily and it is not helping me at all. My husband just got home so I think I am going to go to the hospital.
