ForMyfamily 84 Posted October 7, 2012 Woke up this morning and sharp pains just under lower left rib. What the heck is going on. About a month out from surgery, no problems up till now. Last night I did have a piece of Jerky that did not sit well and ended up getting sick. Hoping it was just from throwing up and pulled something but the pain is just hurting.

mattr2 32 Posted October 7, 2012 I sometimes feel a dull pain where my full stomach used to be. I am 8 weeks out and the morning is when it is the most noticeable. I think it usually happens when my stomach is completely empty. I also get nauseous a little when I brush my teeth. I had read it takes a full three to six months for everything to heal up completely so I am hoping those things subside. When I feel it at night, I usually go eat a piece of lunch meat with a slice of cheese and it does the trick. Good news is, I am down 34 lbs and get compliments every day on my progress. I am over 1/2 way to goal and feeling great (Bmi was 33 preop) Hang in there!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
