Stomach pain

Hi all: I am 5 1/2 months post surgery I have had stomach pain on off for past 3 months had my gall bladder out in august since then I have had severe pain on and off. My dr, Dr Krause (great man) claims I just have a sensitive stomach but I dont see that. Has anyone out there have or had these same things? Amy

Amy, I am sorry you are in pain. I suffered w/ severe nausea daily for over a month. My surgeon and my pcp didn't do anything for me. They each kinda blamed the other and I paid the price!! Finally at my 4 mos. WLS check up, the doctor's assitant helped me by prescribing Prilosec OTC 1 tab daily. I have been a-okay ever since. Is Dr. Krause your surgeon or your reg. doctor? Which ever he is, follow up with the other one. Be assertive and advocate for yourself with both docs. Maybe it is just a sensitive stomach, but surely they can offer something to you for relief.

April, thanks so much for the reply, I am on prilosec already 2x's a day. I am seeing Dr. Krause the surgeon on moday, if I get nowhere with him again I will see my pcp and see what he says. Thanks for the help

I have a VERY sensitive stomach. I have been known to have to go back to liquids now and then for a week or two at a time. I now take Pepcid twice a day and that has made all the difference. I have been to the er a few times for abd pain. this last time was chest pain which ended up being my sensitive pouch!!! Good luck to you! Donna

Thank you I am on prilosec x2 a day already but I am getting better I think. I have had the chestwhen the cheswt pain too but have not gone to er for that yet, I will try again with Dr Krause (surgen) on monday and see what he says thanks for the advise.

I had that pain. It was gas.
