Pain under left breast after mini gastric bypass
Helen68 posted a topic in Mini Gastric Bypass Surgery Forum
Hi, I had my surgery 2 weeks ago and am now of pain meds’ but as well as constipation I have been experiencing pain under my left boob and wondered if was wind? has anyone else had anything similar ? thanks -
My sternum sticks out since loosing 65 lbs from pre surgery it seems like it has a bump on it and the front of my rib cage at the edge feels thick and the sides feel thin. It is weird to feel these bones since being so overweight for do long i never paid attention to them. I'm wondering if anyone elce is going through this also and does it seem normal or odd that I seem to have this. I would include pics but it doesn't show in pics. I'm also experiencing thin but and having the tail bone hurt from sitting for long time , but is has gotten better but now I get sore from the bone where the leg goes into the hip. I must say that I'm not trying to complain, it is just new things to deal with. 0lease share any advice or similar situation you have. Thank you.

Any Ideas? Very Mild Chest Pressure Sensation
PuraVida37 posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was banded on 9/30/13 and have had a pretty good go of it so far. But for the past few days I've been having some mild chest pressure sensations along with my usual nerve irritation feelings. It started as left shoulder sensation, and now I'm noticing it throughout my chest here and there (under my breasts on my ribcage or above my breasts on my chest. I usually get the shoulder pain when I am running on empty, but this odd feeling didn't really go away with food. I tried Gas X, but that didn't really do anything either. The only thing that makes the feeling temporarily dissipate is drinking hot tea. So that makes me think my band is too tight? But that doesn't make sense either since I got my fill about a month ago 3.5cc, and I was fine right after. It doesn't get tighter over time, does it? So of course my next move is to contact the doc, but I'm curious if any of you have had this or know what it could be? Again, it's not really pain, just tightness or irritation. ETA: I know this sounds nuts, but it is almost like I can feel the band. Can anyone else feel theirs? -
Sharp Pain On Left Side Of Chest
Rosemarie Giordano posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am 2 weeks post op and every time I eat (swallow) I get an extremely sharp pain on the left side of my chest that lasts about a half hour. Has anyone else experienced this? I mentioned it to my surgeon and he said he has never gotten this complaint from other patients and maybe its trapped air under my diaphragm. Its driving me crazy and making me scared to eat anything. I also read on the internet that it could be a muscle spasm which is nothing to worry about but there is nothing that can be done about it. All I know is that it started with my surgery. I just read on the internet that it could be esophogeal spasm. I wonder if I should go back to my surgeon or my primary care physician.- 6 replies

Hi all, I’m 4 months post op from gastric bypass surgery. All has been going well until recently. I’ve been getting awful pain in the right of my chest (like under my breast) and also over onto the shoulder blade. It feels like it gets worse after eating. It will be so uncomfortable, achey and even start tingling sensations. I’ve had a barium swallow test, which showed no issue, an ECG to check my heart and also a gallbladder scan. All tests came back normal. Does anybody else have any ideas for me? Thanks in advance, Kirsty
