Chest pains 3 days post op

[mpike62 3]

Hi. I have recently just been sleeved 1/16/17 and I have a couple of concerns. I am in no pain, but when I drink fluids I get a sharp pain in my mid chest area until the Fluid subsides. Does that make sense? Has anyone experienced that. It has only been three days so I am praying that it is just has build up. Hoping someone has an answer.

I had surgery the day after you and i have a similar thing. Ive been told its common to feel a pressure like pain. It feels as if i can feel exactly where it is in my body. My surgeon wasnt concerned. Im of the impression this is gas?

I had my surgery Jan 17, that happens to me. I was told if you drink to fast or swallow to much at one time this happens. I drink more slowly and less intake. It also could be gas as well.

You may be having trouble with gas. Try gas ex if you can take it. Gas makes pain worse. You can get referred pain from your gut in chest and back. Tell your doctor.

I had that too. I am 6 weeks out and that feeling is much better, but I still get it a little bit, especially when I try to eat too fast. I burp a liitle too.

I had my surgery on 1/13 and I had the same thing. It's normal, every day gets better. The pain went away about day 6

I was told right before my surgery that the chest pains were common, and that it would be gas. I am 2 days post. Although I have not experienced it, I have had quite a bit of nauceousness. I will be happy when this subsides.
