Trip to ER w/ severe cramping



Recommended Posts

Pretty rough night :'(

I'm 2 weeks post op getting ready to add some soft foods when I woke up in the middle of the night with severe stabbing pain throughout my abdomen. Has any one else experienced this right as the switch to soft foods. Last thing I ate was 2oz of haddock and was very full. Wondering did I over do it? Didn't think is was to much. Cat scan came back fine! Hoping it does not return but belly is still not feeling right :'(

An ulcer in two weeks??? Oboy!!! My team looked at cat scan with radiologist and said everything looked good. I hope not!!! Iam having a hard time passing my bowels thinking that might be an issue. See how tonight goes!!

Thanks

It very well could be an issue with your bowels. If you are having trouble going to the bathroom you should call your Bariatric team. You don't want to end up with a blockage.

Hope you feel better soon!

Talked to my team today. They reassured me no blockages as of now. They recommended mik og magnesia but just isn't doing it. Now I'm having to do sapasatories so we will see. Did have some relief early today but nothing since. So frustrating :-(

Thanks

it could have been the haddock, did you check the date or make sure it was cooked all the way? It's probably in your belly going ahhhh nooo turn turn....def try to get poop out.

I don't have any problem keeping stuff down just that one episode of cramping. Its been dine since then ;-)

I really think it had something to do with the whole lack of bowel movements which are much better now.

I had the same thing happen to me.. Pain and cramping.. I couldn't get comfortable.. I went to ER and everything in my abdomen was swollen but luckily no blockages either.. My team just told me to remember everything is still swollen and getting used to it.. Glad your feeling better!

❤️????

Very late response, but I had maui-maui and salmon 1-2 oz. and had severe full stomach fullness and pain. This is the second time this happened with fish. It lasted about 3 hours. 8 wks post op. Only "problem" I have had. No more fish for me!

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
