Weird pain



Recommended Posts

Hello all.... I was banded nov 2012 I've recently been experiencing some weird pains. Had pain in my shoulder last week I thought it was the coming if The Lord that's how bad it was. Just out the blue and it lasted for a week. Now the pain has shifted to my middle back! Could this be the gas I've heard ppl talk about on here? I'm burping and farting( excuse me ) but the pain won't go away. I thought those gas pockets were for early banders I'm 11 months in..... Omg this pain please any info will be greatly appreciated

Hello: You need to call your doctor and be seen. He'll probably do a barium swallow and/or a EGD to see what's going on. Don't delay seeing the doctor. It's important to take care of yourself. Please let us know how you're doing later. Sorry about the format as it won't let me create new paragraphs or lines. Sue

years ago, i had symptoms like this and it ended up being my gall bladder/stones..

they removed it...i agree with the above poster, a call to the doctor is def in order

(esp when pain is involved).

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
