Feeling Pain

I need help! Has anyone felt any pains on the lower left rib region that seems to travel up to the front sholder area. If anyone has had any of these problems, please let me know and recomend something to me because the pain is unbareable. I went to the E.R. and they told me i was OK. probably just some strained muscle, but its been a week. What bothers me is that it hurts after i eat. Pain goes away with pain medacine but who can live on meds. all their live. Please help.

Hi Amy I'm sorry you're feeling so horrible. I hate when doc's send you home with not knowing what's wrong. it doesn't sound like a strained muscle to me, it sounds like your gall bladder. I hope you feel better soon. Hugs Linda

Could be Gall Bladder? I am no doctor, but I would get a second opinion before giving up or eating Tylenol forever! Hope it goes away soon!!! ~Laura

It could be many things Amy. It could be your Gall Bladder, acid reflux, ulcers...If I were you, I'd check with your surgeon or even your PCP. I prayed for you to feel better. Hugs, Letty p.s. your surgeon might want to scope you to find the real reason behind the pain...

Try pepcid complete ,it sounds like gas.I had the same problem.This help alot.

Sounds exactly like the pain I had--almost thought for a while I might be having a heart attack--it was my gall bladder. They removed it and problem solved. The WLS surgery can really mess up the gall bladder and lots of people end up having it removed after WLS. Go to your PCP. Good Luck!
