AmandaXSue 1 Posted September 1, 2018 I’m only 5 days post op but I’m getting stomach pain! It will go away and come back! I’m only drinking Water and Protein Shakes rt now! Could it be the nexium? Or is the Protein Shake ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FutureRN19 18 Posted September 1, 2018 What kind of pain? Soreness, sharp burning etc? Does anything make it worse or better? I'd for sure call your surgeon asap Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AmandaXSue 1 Posted September 1, 2018 I took my nexium and it feels much better. Something is definitely upsetting my stomach . It has to be the Protein Shakes. I’m calling my doctors office. I’ll let you know what he says. Its a dull burning . I’ve had it a few times but maybe an hour but tonight it lasted too long. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AmandaXSue 1 Posted September 1, 2018 (edited) well, doctor says I’m probably just not ready for the Protein Shakes . He said It sounded like I’m just still healing. Going back on Clear Liquids today to give my body a break. My follow up is on Tuesday. Edited September 1, 2018 by AmandaXSue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Naughty Glitter Goddess 645 Posted September 1, 2018 I'm glad you got a hold of your doc quickly. It's so strange how everyone heals at a vastly different pace. I had a pretty easy time with full liquids like Protein Shakes but the puree stage has kicked my butt! I can barely get in a bite or two at a time plus dealing with Constipation. I hope you're feeling better soon! 1 Frustr8 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
