They said pain can be expected. If it's a pain on you left side under neath your ribs that doesn't go away and is accompanied by chills and fever I would alert your care team right away.

Drinking to fast can be upsetting, and it's a challenge for sure. If you're like me your bodies used to gulping. Just stay mindful and you'll pull through!

I was sleeved on the 12th also and I do have pains there also if I eat or drink too fast or too much at once. I also notice once I feel full that is where I feel it most.

Just take it slower and listen to your body telling you you’re full. Sounds weird but sometimes I stand up if I feel full because the area you are describing I will feel a “pull” or a tugging if I’m full. When I am sitting I might not feel as full as when I’m standing.

I had mine on the 12th too. I get a fairly severe pain in that area if I eat something that doesn't work or if I drink too fast. I also get a horrible left shoulder pain, which I think is likely referred from the diaphragm. If it's constant I would have more concern.
