Abdominal Pain



Recommended Posts

Hey Guys,

I got sleeved on June 11th, i passed my leak test on the 12th and all was good and got discharged from the hospital.

3 days later i had pains and discomfort, my dr asked me to go back and had another leak test, but confirmed it was negative and that i was dehydrated, and they gave me saline solution via iv.

A couple of days ago i felt some sort of shooting abdominal pain, i thought it was gas and went for a 40 mins walk but nothing happened.

Since then i have been feeling the same pain with every sip!!

I take the sip, i feel it going down, and once i feel it entering my stomach, shooting pain starts developing on both sides and starts circling back until the kidneys and then disappears where this whole scenario takes probably a couple of seconds, and that is with almost every sip.

Sometimes this pain shoots without sipping but it doesn't find its way back to mu kidneys it just develops then disappears in a few minutes!!!

Any body experiencing the same? And body knows what this is? Or if i shall be concerned?

Call your surgeon for sure. Do you have a gall-bladder still? I understand that some people can develop gall-stones after the surgery.....

I do have my gall-bladder.. The most important thing is to be sure its not a leak... Do you think it might be?

      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.
