Big_Mama 511 Posted January 12, 2015 Hey everyone! I was sleeved 12/29, and started my puree stage today. I believe I ate too fast and got nauseous, which in turn made me vomit. Now every time I bend down or try to turn (while in bed), I feel this pain by my belly button, kind of like I'm being stabbed with something sharp!!! What could it be?! Has anyone experienced anything similar?!?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BLERDgirl 6,417 Posted January 12, 2015 You're still healing so it's not surprising that vomiting caused pain. Take it easy for tonight, it pain persist call your doctor in the AM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MyssJones 84 Posted January 12, 2015 Trying lying down on your side and sipping Water. I vomited a few times in the first few weeks and they pain will subside. Just take it easy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Big_Mama 511 Posted January 12, 2015 Thanks ladies! I definitely need to learn how to slow down. I barely got in half of my meal when I had to run off, and not even 10 minutes had passed since I had begun. @@MyssJones, sleeping on my side right now is so painful. I feel kind of like I pulled a muscle. =/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vctlong 4 Posted January 15, 2015 I would check with dr right away. I read in big book on gastric sleeve that a sharp piecing pain can be sign of leakage. I don't mean to scare you but better safe than sorry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big_Mama 511 Posted January 16, 2015 Thankfully it was nothing. The Dr. said I probably pulled a stitch at the muscle by my belly button, and to just ice it and take Tylenol. I felt much better the day after. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
