Ok, I have been feeling really great,looking forward to my first fill. The day before my fill, I started feeling like something had gotten stuck(I have little or no Fluid in band) and was pretty painful but bearable. It felt just like if you swallowed real hard and 5 seconds later the pain would be gone except this pain did not go away for 2 days. I explained this to my dr. the next day and he would not give me a fill because he said I was eating to fast and maybe taking too big of bites( rescheduled me for 6 weeks later:().All day I felt slight discomfort, but it was bearable. Now yesterday I was feeling better for the most part except when I went to bed-I had bad pains between my breast bone and a lump in my throat.I do not have my gallbladder anymore, but boy are the feelings similar!! I do not know what to think this morning I am back to slight discomfort in my backbone and my ribcage is sore like I did situps or something. My husband thinks I am nuts!!(lol) I have been virtually pain free for most of my 5 weeks post op. I am going to call my dr. office when they open at 9, but I am so anxious!! I am trying not to worry about every little twitch, but I do not feel that my original pain was due to eating too fast.At the time I was in my dr office I did not think my pain would last 3 days and counting....I know my friends here would at least sympathize with me or commiserate(lol)Any input would be great!!!

I'm sorry you're in pain!! I'm not sure what the problem is, but I think checking it out with your doctor is the right thing to do.

Good luck! I hope this resolves quickly for you!

Kelly -

Will be curious to see what your doctor says. Did you go to liquids after you had the "pain?" Whenever I get stuck or have that feeling of discomfort - especially if it persists, I give things time to calm down and go to liquids for a few days, slowly getting back to solids. You may have some swelling and if you are eating solids it may be irritating it.

Let us know what you find out!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
