Stomach pain started Friday, 16 days post op. called doc saturday and he put me back on all liquid. Pain worse Sunday. This morning sent me for CT scan. I have a blood clot between my stomach and liver. ER doc has never seen one there and no idea how to treat. They admitted me, giving me Heparin to stop growth and will consult with specialist in morning. Of course they are saying they don't know for sure if this is a result of surgery or even if this is the source of my pain. Covering their asses, I guess!

Best I can explain is that it feels like someone punched me in the stomach. Still waiting to see what they're going to do...

Was it a constant pain? Or a quick pain.

I'm asking because the side of my stomach hurts but it feels like a pulled muscle and it's not always there..comes on if I walk too much or lift something.

A constant pain. Stronger at times than others but always there.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
