What the heck is this feeling? ?



Recommended Posts

Hi my fellow sleevers!! I am 5 weeks post op and I woke up with an excruciating pain th3 other but it we t away after 50 deathly groans on my bed sweating. That's not even 2 hat I wanna ask u about. . After that crazy unpredictable episode I have been having this pain which is the same pain I had for at 7 days after surgery.

Ok the best way to describe it is someone squeezes the inside of my stomach while poking them with needles and as that's happening the pain shoots all the way up to my throat. It last for 5 Seconds then subsides only to come back after 1 minute. It seems to get less by lying down but I can feel it's evil sneaky self trying to creep back up but can't. Lol please take your time to tell me what it could be. My sleeved friend said I know 2 what this is I took this meds and it goes away. English isn't her first language so I'm not sure ...I need u guys! Yes it's new for now but was there first week of surgery. . I can't talk until it passes.

Did you call your surgeon? If you haven't, please do so immediately. There is no reason for you to be in that kind of pain, and it could be something your surgeon needs to tend to right away.

Ok so that extreme pain went away after I wrote this post but now I have gas pains in chest and under my breast area...I wasn't eating before this happened. I was drinking only. I went to the ER..somehow in this country the ER is packed. Doc just said this is typical to have gas pains. I said I haven't had gas pains since day 6 and now it's back?? It hurts to drink like the first 2 weeks too. I'm 5 weeks post op. Surgeon said I can eat solids at 5 weeks but I decided to wait till 6 weeks and all of a sudden this happens. Can it be from not goin to the bathroom this week? Could it be bcuz I used to get gassy and bloated easily pre surgery?

And hurts to drink again and I also have a fever cuz my daughter had a bad cold and now I got it. I'm just miserable. . Just as I thought things were getting better. .

      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.
