Not sure what is going on, woke up feeling some what human yesterday... did my scheduled workout and then went to get some groceries. Ate my scheduled "meals" and took in my fluids and protein (not all all of it as it is still hard). Around 4pm yesterday I started to feel horrible, belly hurt, felt so nauseous, and could not function. Took almost all night with very small sips of water and a dose of my pain meds to make me feel slightly better.
Got a great night's sleep, woke up and had my breakfast. SF Carnation Instant Breakfast. Took me 30 mins to fini**** and the whole time it hurt to drink it. My belly hurt, my chest hurt, and I felt nauseous.
Now trying to work on my first 16oz of water, every time I sip it hurts in my chest, then my belly and makes me close to vomiting.
Anyone else experience this?? Any ideas before I call surgeon and make a big deal over nothing?

I hope you have called your Dr by now or you are feeling better. I was not able to post yesterday and it drove me nuts. I am not sure what is going on, but I hope you called your Dr to find out. Are you still on full liquids? Could you have gotten something stuck? Let us know hope you are feeling better today.

Felt a bit better, but called the doc today as drinking water was killing me! Hurt going down, felt like a stone hitting my stomach, and would ache for 10 mins and that was just a sip.
Doc feels that Monday I over did it trying to get all my fluids and protein in. That I may have angered the pouch, so I should double up on acid meds to calm the beast, stay clear of plain water and try anything else until the pain is gone. So I went for a coffee on the way home from the beach... skim with splenda... amazingly the headache I have had for a week is gone!
The only other issue is feeling like I am having a heart attack from the gas!! I have walked a million miles and while it gurgles and moves, it does not goes go away. I need a trick to learn how to belch like a trucker. If I could get it OUT I would be sooo much happier! Anyone have any tricks??
Weighed myself today... YAHOOO down 11lbs since surgery last Tuesday! Every time I hate this decision for how yucky I feel, I get on the scale and SMILE!! Thanks SOOKIE for the love... I know I sound like the typical newbie but I feel so helpless sometimes!
