GOOD MORNING

Nasty day here in the greater shreveport area. Just wanted to post that for about a week now I have been having pain in my stomach. Its gotten worse over the week and also I started my period two weeks early. Well I thought it was a female problem so I called the ob/gyn doc and I go wed for check up.(over due anyways) well the pain has gotten worse so I have been talking to my doctors nurse by email Friday and over the weekend. Placed a call into docs office this morning and waiting to hear back. The nurse said that they May do a scope and check things out. Feel better sitting and laying down. And it hurts real bad when I take in a deep breath or burp. This morning I woke up and back hurt too but its eased up. Strange feeling, almost like a burning. Have not thrown up or felt sick that way and its not cramps. Will let you know what happens. Thanks for letting me ramble denise 250-196-150

Hi Denise, I am sorry you are feeling bad. Do you still have your gallbladder? It sounds like some of the problems I had with mine. Isn't the weather ugly? I just feel like I need to go back to bed. It is so yucky. Hope is passes on through. I want the warm weather back. Keep us posted on your pain. Jodi

Hello, This is the first time I have looked at this web page in a long time. George as I like to call him did my surg on the 7/01/03 went from 550 to 237 if you have been in his office in the last year that is my picture on his wall in the lobby. Take care and best wishes Bob Fitzgerald W. Monroe

Hi Bob, Glad to meet you, yes I have seen your picture in the office. I just read your profile, you sure did go through a lot. Sorry you had to deal with all your post op problems. I was just in his office for my 3 month visit and also for the support meeting. There were only 3 RNY's and the rest were band patients. I do enjoy talking with others concerning the RNY. Bob, you have done fabulous!!! You must be thrilled. Take care, Jodi

hi Denise, sounds like gallbladder, I just had mine out, hope you go to the MD and find out for sure, my symptoms was feeling bad all over, right shoulder blade pain, belly discomfort, nausea, and right side pain, on and off for 3 weeks, finally gave in, had it taken out... rhonda

thanks guys for the concern, no its not gall bladder, had mine removed in 88. my doc called back and says it sounds like a female problem so wednesday i am going to see the ob/gyn doc. it hurts real bad above the belly button and right now i feel so hot, i feel somewhat feverish now too. thanks all for writting me back denise

Hi Denise. I actually just went through the same issues, only I've already had my gallbladder removed. The pain stayed for almost two weeks but then just disappeared. I tried everything from gas medicine to laxatives but nothing worked, it eventually eased up enough for me to just wait it out. I hope everything works out for you and let me know what it is incase I need to call my doctor to inform him about getting something done for this issue. Thanks Kristen 240/185/145ish

hey girl, sorry your felling bad, can't say I don't know what it feels like though!!! I am having somewhat of the same issues,, just a lil different area's ,, I honestly think it could be a HORRIBLE HORRIBLE stomach virus going around,, thats what it was for me,, One day I was dying ,. or should I say for about 2 weeks I was dying and then monday I woke up and was somewhat ok,, sooo weird,,, I hope you feel better girl , let us know,,, I also have been having weird periods since the surgery,

thanks everyone for such support. I wi**** was a stomach virus but dont think it is. I dont really feel sick to my stomach at all and have not thrown up. Tomorrow I see my ob/gyn doc and we will see if its related to that first. thanks again denise
