Recommended Posts

Ok here it is...and I have already left a message for my doc too....

still on liquids. last night...2am...bolt upright awake with a SEVERE pain in my stomach. Like, seriously it felt like someone was grabbing the inside of my stomach sleeve and ripping it out. At the same time , I felt burning in my chest area, and tasted what I thought was blood...felt an intense urge to start coughing, but stomach pain was ripping me apart so I was trying to get to toilet.

I sat in front of the toilet thinking I was going to vomit, but the pain was so bad, I got all sweaty and tingly, and felt like the room was spinning, felt like I was gonna pass out! I felt like I couldn't catch my breath for the burning in my chest and tried to cough just a little, which burned like terrible and coughed up what looked and tasted like stomach bile.

I was almost crying, my husband was about to call 911... I kept saying "somethings wrong, somethings wrong" I seriously thought I was gonna die. Then, as quickly as it came on, the pain subsidded. However....I still had the burning in my chest, and now this morning, it still feels tight in my chest and rattly ...

ok, just heard from the doc, they want me to go have a chest xray..

sigh..... nothing can ever go smoothly for me.

Are you on an acid blocker? It sounds like you were having a terrible time with acid.

I am anxious to hear what the dr,. said.

I forgot to take my PPI on Monday and I had an acid attack. It felt like burning in my chest. I hope that is the cause. I am so sorry you are going through this. Let us know what the doctor says. Sending healing wishes your way!

Thank you all...well they did an Ekg, Chest CT, bloodwork...all came back ok. Which bothers me...because it was very very real and very very painful! My self-diagnosis maybe a severe gas pain? then when I sat up I refluxed acid and it burned my chest and throat.... not sure where the blood taste was comeing from though...

Oh well..I'm ok. guess that's all that matters. though I felt like a dummy at the ER.

Hi kindra,

Did you go to the Dr's??? What did they say??

I have been waking up in the middle of the night with burning in my throat from well I think that its that stong yucky yellow bile stuff from my stomach and was wondering if it is the same as what you are getting?

Please let me know

Sounds a lot like when I used to wake up choking and unable to breathe from aspirating stomach acid. Yay, reflux! Thank God that's been totally gone since surgery. NOT fun.

I'm glad to hear you are OK! Did the Dr. prescribe something for the reflux? Just Curious...

      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.
