Severe abdominal pain after year and half



Recommended Posts

I have been in severe abdominal pain now for four hours. This is my second episode with this. I thought it was just severe gas and bloating at first, but have taken gas x and mylanta and tums. No relief. It seems to stem from left side under rib cage. Could this be an ulcer or something else. I keep praying for the pain to ease. Has anyone had this and what do I do or not do so this won't happen anymore. I plan to call dr in morning but was hoping for some advice tonight. Thanks

not 100% sure but it sounds like it could be a gall stone or kidney stone. But I would definitely see a doctor if pain meds are not working.

Are you able to keep things down? If not, perhaps your gallbladder.

Just wondering if you received a diagnosis... I'm in the same situation.

Do you still have your gallbladder? Sounds like gallbladder trouble.

Yes, had an ultrasound and found I have a very large kidney stone and a large polyp in my gall bladder. I see a specialist tomorrow and I am assuming removal of the gall bladder and some sort of procedure to remove the kidney stone. It has not been a fun month. Thanks for your concern.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
