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

      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.
