Random inflammation every now and then on the middle right side of my stomach. It’s a year since I did the surgery and am consistently losing weight but I always get inflamed randomly. Is there something I should be doing differently to help with the inflammation. I don’t eat much but it’s concerning since it always happens and lasts a couple of hours then goes down. Usually when I wake up and sometimes at night. It feels bruised when I press down on it lightly.

Does it feel like it's distended? It is warm to the touch?

Gas ? Does having a good fart relive it or could be your position you sleep in we have a new cair at work that gives me a pain in the lower left abdomen which worried me but then I realised I only got the pain when I was at work. But yes get it checked out just in case it's something .

I don’t think it’s gas it feels like soft and then goes away a couple hours later it’s weird like a cloud but 🤣 that’s the first thing I thought about but it never was gas pain when it first started it was weird like an inflamed cloud but nah it goes away without needing to fart or anything I just drink Water and wait a few hours it’s soft and puffy happens at least two to three times every two weeks but I’ll see if I can message the hospital to talk to my nurse ☺️ thank you all for responding

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
