Or heartburn

Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

Heartburn really? Even though I'd eaten nothing in 3 days?? It was worse than a gallbladder attack I know that much it's was horrendous, I've been getting numb legs and hands to and passed out a few times :-(

Sounds like a swollen ouch which led to a panic attack and low blood sugar from not eating. Something similar happened to me at 3weeks out.

I thought gallbladder at first but then you said you had yours removed. I also had my gallbladder removed 10 wks. after my RNY... and I still get really bad pains across my chest kind of under my boobs. I am going for a CT scan next week. My doctors said that there could still be stones left in the ducts, during surgery they try to clean all the ducts out but if there is a tiny, tiny stone it could still grow. I would consult with your doctor ASAP, something does not sound right.

Hi thanks for replying x I have been on the the hospital this afternoon and they told me to go in tomorrow as soon as I can hoping they might stick a camera down my throat to see what's going on, I thought today apart from the chest pain which was debilitating, it's very like the pain I experienced when they filled my old band up way too much had forgotten about it till my mum came over, I take a sip and after about 10-15 seconds this noise travels back up my throat and into my mouth and the pain :-( I thought I'd had all the crap life could throw at me with the crap band if I have to change my name to bariatric op number 5 I'm going to be sooo pissed :-(((( x

It's crazy that you're having the numb limbs too. Sooo scary. I'm waiting on lab results now, hoping its just low B12 and not something really bad.

      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.
