6 days out and stomach pain



Recommended Posts

Ugh! I think I had too much of my drink too fast! My stomach was feeling really bloated so I took GasEx and sat down hoping for the pain to pass...instead, I started to feel nauseas and headed into the bathroom to perch on the porcelain throne for a bit. At this point, I was praying to sweet Baby Jesus to please let me survive this experience so I could learn from it. Two trips to the bathroom later, I'm feeling a little better and I'm laying down to rest for a bit. Just wanted to share my experience so I could remind myself and other newly banded peeps the importance of sipping your drinks slowly. ;)

Yep. I'm 7 days postop. My stepmom made me some pureed squash Soup last night. I gobbled it down and ended up with a stomach ache for 4 hours. Fun!

Sorry you are not feeling well but a unfortunately, this is how we usually learn our lessons. Remember that as long as you eat and drink slowly from now on, you shouldn't have this discomfort. Feel better soon gals.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
