Hi everyone! I was sleeved 43 days ago. Recently when I wake up I have been experiencing abdominal pain. It's minimal, just sore feels like I did some sit ups the night before. I'm not getting sick or have a fever but still scared.

Anyone experience this?

I've had some heartburn which my doctor said was pretty common that has calmed down but still worries me something serious could be starting. My doc always says if something is wrong I'll know it and maybe I'm sleeping wrong but can't find anyone with this problem. Most have sharp or unbearable pain and I don't just soreness that wasn't there before. If anyone has had this id appreciate the advice. Thanks so much

If you are having pain whether it is sharp/unbearable or like you describe as a sudden onset of consistent pain, you really should go to your doctor to make sure there isn't something serious going on internally. Don't take pain lightly and don't ignore it. Please call your doctor - that's what they are there for!!

Hope you get some relief soon!!

Oh wow. I hope everything works out. I have been having some heartburn after I eat. My pain is around the incision above my belly button. It's not painful just sore like I did some sit ups like the muscle is sore. It's that how you felt?

I hope your okay. Please keep us posted and we will keep you in our prayers. I'm sure it's an easy fix. I've heard of that before and I think they would just go and open up wider.

I don't know exactly. But a girl my friend knew said they had to some how widen the esophagus. What did your doc say they would do. My doc even told me in the post op that if that happened it would be an easy fix

      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.
