Pain in the right side of my chest like a rock?

[Chunky_Dunk 61]

Ok, guys and gals...I had my sleeve surgery performed on November 20th 2013. Here for the past couple of days I have noticed that I will randomly feel a pain in the bottom of my throat/top of my chest that feels like I swallowed a rock and it makes it hard to breathe in deeply. It would come and go and I kind of took it for a form of gas or something. Well, last night all night I kept waking up with heartburn and some chest pain, but I guess I was still mostly asleep because I just kept passing back out. Well, this morning I woke up and I have this pain in my right chest behind my rib and in my breast whenever I breathe in and I feel the same feeling as if I swallowed a large rock in my lower throat/top of my chest. I am not sure of what in the world this could possibly be. I have noticed that at certain times I have eaten a little quickly and I end up throwing up. I am not talking about shoving food in my face and not chewing. I make sure that I chew til it is runny LOL! But I eat only 3-4 bites and I am stuffed, so trying to drag 3-4 small bites of food over 30 minutes is very difficult. I end up throwing it up, though when I eat too quickly. And I just did that the other day, so I don't know if that is what it is. I don't do it often. I try to make sure that when I am eating, I'm not just eating. I am doing something else, too, so that I eat slower and don't think about it. Obviously I know that I may need to go see my doc if the problem doesn't persist, but man...I would really appreciate some opinions from anyone who may know or may have had a similar experience! Thanks so much, everyone! <3

The only two things that come to mind are gerd with acid reflux symptoms.. Or a stricture.

It really is best to put a call into the doctor to have him or her evaluate you.

Sounds like you need to contact your doctor because it could be acid reflux, pnuemonia or even blood clots. About two weeks after my surgery i started feeling pain in my upper stomach and back on the left side that would not go away. I contacted my doctor he had me come in for a CT-Scan and found that I had blood clots in my stomach. So please don't take any chances with this go and have it checked out. Good luck!

I have always had heartburn here and there. I am going to see my doc, but I can't get in until Tuesday for my appointment. May go to E.R., but prefer to see my doc that knows about my surgery and all and don't have to re-explain all. We'll see. My sister is a nurse and she thinks it's probably GERD. Thank y'all for the advice!!! I appreciate it! I definitely need to get this figured out and get it fixed or get meds because it does not feel good!
