I'm a little over 5 months post-sleeve. I've done great so far, losing around 100 lbs, at my goal weight, and a healthy BMI. Diabetes controlled without meds, life has been good!

4 days ago, I started getting lots of abdominal pain, I've had a little hear and there since my surgery, but nothing like this. Yesterday, my wife took me to the ER, got blood work, a CT scan, everything was negative. They gave me some anti nausea medication and said to follow up with an enterologist if it doesn't get better. Anyone have anything like this? What was the cause/solution?

My first thought is gallstones, but that should have showed up on a scan. I hope it mysteriously disappears and never comes back. Nice work, btw!

So, a long holiday weekend spent in the hospital, another evening in the ER last Saturday, and I finally got in to see a gastroenterologist yesterday. Now I am back surgeons office, they suspect pancreatitis, which didn't show up on the endoscope. Possible laproscopic exploratory surgery in my near future...

Oh no! The pancreatitis usually is on the CT scan, but I assume your lab tests showed something. Good luck to you.
