Chest pain 5 days post op



Recommended Posts

Hi,

I was sleeved 12/28 and my nut and surgeon said the first week i will be on Clear Liquids including Jello. I tried some 3 days after my surgery and had a small pain under my left breast bone every time I take small bites. I tried it again tonight on day 5 post op and felt the same pain. Is this normal? Will this go away? is it because its sort of cold?

Anything helps, i'm just worried.

Thanks!

Hey!

I had the sleeve a day after you and I have been experiencing similar things - for me I get a pain behind my sternum whenever I swallow. This happens more with pure liquids than with creamed Soups. I hope it's a temporary deal bc I would be extremely devastated if this is an irreparable symptom.

Good luck to us both! [emoji1374]

I was sleeved on Dec 15th. The pain does go away. I no longer have any trouble eating.

      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?

      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.
