Frustr8 7,886 Posted November 22, 2018 Chest pains, definite red flag🚩, substernal? upper chest? entire chest or one triggering point? I find it very concerning, what does your bariatric team say about it? Gas, hmmn, Uncle Si Robertson on Duck Dynasty, thought he had had gas he couldn't burp free, decided to go hunting to work it off, lucky he had some intervention, he turned out to be right in the middle of an ❤ attack. Luckily,he made it through, but will you without intervention. Depends on a wiser person than me sorting symptoms out, but you know, squeaky wheels get theirselves greased first. Be proactive with you, you are the only you that you have! Don't worry this great-grandma to death, do something for you now! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jazzy1125 1,010 Posted November 22, 2018 the pain is gas as you are sipping. I went through the same thing every time i took a sip. It seems the gas was trying to pass the liquid on the way down as the burp was coming up. I am now two weeks post op and that seems to have gone away. I dont exactly remember which day but i no longer feel that constant pain in the chest as i am drinking liquids. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frustr8 7,886 Posted November 22, 2018 I belch furiously after every attempt to eat and/or drink, n matter how slow, at 75-80% Precious Pouch tries to upchuck. Hey I actually ate something that stayed down. 3 well-chewed Club Crackers each with a little pimento cheese spread! Hey maybe she though it was a treat and not food. Hey it is a temporary NVV, a non- vomiting victory, why it did work is like Heaven, beyond all Human Understanding! Why did she accept THAT when she refuses even pureed? IDK but Happy Happy Joy 😂 Joy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
