Recommended Posts

Ok..so last night I had bad heart burn, this morning every-time I shallow I have a sharp pain in my throat that leads down my upper back right between my shoulder blades?????? Anyone ever have this feeling? I know I'm not sick, it's not the type of common sore throat pain. Any help please, I hate to bother my Doctor on his off time :(

Bother your doctor that is what he gets paid for. Those questions are not for us to answer it could be something serious. Call him/her they get paid to be on call 24 hours 7 days a week. I dont get why people dont want to call your doctors its not bothering them it may save you from something aweful just call him.

You just gave him thirty thousand dollars, You have every right to disturb him if you think you need

to. I'd go back to liquids for a day or so, until you can get in touch with some one. If it goes away in a

day of so, you're probably OK, but don't let it go. The pain in your back is probably referred pain

from somewhere else. Hopefully your doctor can tell you where.

sounds like reflux to me...my husband has it really bad and has complained with those same symptoms. Definitely should see the doc though

Sounds like reflux to me. I have the same problems and pepcid AC has really helped. That's what my doctor suggested. You could try that for a day or two and see if the pain goes away. Mine did :-) hope you feel better. I understand the exact pain/discomfort you're going through.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
