Gallbladder or heartburn???

[Lila 0]

Hi

I've been suffering from a burning tummy for a week or so. Before it came and went. I 'd eat rolaids and it would be gone. Now nothing is working. I keep sliming and I have not eaten.

Anyone experience anything like this?

What you are describing sounds like a problem with the band rather than a gallbladder problem. I would advise you call and make an appointment to be seen ASAP. This could be a serious problem but only your surgeon can do the testing required to give you your answers and devise treatment options.

yeah, Lila, I agree... you need some checking done! (do you mean you keep sliming EVEN when you haven't eaten, or you haven't eaten cause you keep sliming?) Either way, give your doc a call, and see what they want you to do!

Ditto with all of the above. Doesn't sound like gallbladder. Call the Doc

Take care

Wednesday I was in the most discofort and I had not eaten anything. So I thought it couldn't possibly get worse if I eat! So I ate a prepackaged frozen meal. And the burning was all most gone!! When I woke up it was starting to burn I ate and again it went away. very weird, as long i have eaten i feel ok

Glad to hear that Lila, did you call TLBC and get there opinion? Your weight loss is incredible. How long have you been banded?

Lila i had that too. Don't know if it was the flu . I had test and they came back normal. I had a fluro xray and my band was fine. I had 2 defills and it felt better but it took awhile for swelling and inflammation to go down. Drink camiloe(sp) tea it helps the digestion system. It really works.
