I've been having some very strange pain/movements in my stomach since eating a bad batch of chili (w/ ground turkey) Saturday night (5 days now). I'm assuming it was the ground turkey that made me sick because I let it sit 2 days after thawing it out (kicks self).

The pain is not too intense (about a 4). But, the nausea and occasional "turning" of my stomach alarms me. It feels like I have a baby doing summersaults inside of me. I'm taking Tylenol Extra Strength for the pain, Zofran for nausea, and also a PPI.

I called my surgeon who suggested that I go to the ER. I DREAD going to that place. But, I will force myself to go if I can't figure out what's wrong with me. I already have a scheduled appointment with my surgeon on Monday.

Has anyone experienced this?

Letting it sit for two days should not be a problem as long as it was refrigerated and you thawed it out in the fridge and not on the counter. I'm glad called your surgeon. Usually if I ate something bad it goes in and comes out right away and once its out I am OK. You may have the the stomach bug that is going around ! Feel better soon !

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
