I was sleeved on November 12th. I have pain on my left side of my stomach area that will not go away. Is this normal? I have tried gas-x, tums, heating pad, pas in medicine... nothing is helping.

I had pain on my right side for a long time. I did talk with my Dr and he said it was just the healing and that it would eventually go away, which it did. I would talk with your Dr about it just to be safe.

Its probably gas...did your dr put you on prevacid or another similar med? If not you may want to try an over the counter kind....being sleeved just 5 days ago you still are dealing with a lot of trapped gas....but check with your dr to see what he says....

I was going to say the gas too...are you able to walk around for more then about 10 min? If not, try as best you can...that helps the gas to move through your body.

Thanks everyone! I am trying to walk as much as I can. Hopefully it will get better because right now I feel like I made the wrong decision.. I know I didn't but I never imagined pain like this.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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.
