Dull ache in pouch!

[gellergirl 0]

Hey everyone!

Day 21, on mushy foods - fell waaaay off track during Christmas and worried that I had done some damage BUT was reasured that I, at the most, had caused some inflamation...but today (after being good for 3 days plus) had kinda pins and needles in my stomach area (solar plexus), a few sharp little pains (level 2 out of 10) that went away, and this evening have a dull ache. Have had two Protein Shakes, sucked on a potato chip, 40 oz plus Water...I should be doing fine - babying the pouch, but it is complaining!?!!

Should I move back into paranoia, and freak out that I really did something but no reflux, no pb, no vomiting - just a dull ache...

Any feedback anyone?!

I promise I have been good but am scared again!

PS even tho I am two hours away from my doc in TJ (who I love), don't want to call him unless really necessary as he will say come on down and we all know logistically it doesn't matter where the doctor is - it's a pain to get there!

Thank you in advance!

I just found this post, and noticed no one replied, so thought I'd give it a try...i really don't know what might be causing these pains...I am very aware of my port area, and if I drink/eat too much at one time, I feel it as pressure; maybe you feel it as pain? If it continues to bother you, I would check with your doctor, no matter how inconvenient it seems. Problems are more inconvenient. Hope you are doing better! Cindy

I had the same exact pains yesterday and today. I freaked out and called the Dr. and the Dr. on-call told me it was gas. So I took some gas-x and I was fine!! I let out the hugest burp, and all was better!!! Good luck to you on your weird pains. If it does concern you, it is okay to call the Dr., I am sure he will understand.

I had pains here and there for a month after banding - I think it was just healing. I wouldn't worry about a pain here and there at this early stage.
