If you are really having problems go to the ER. If it's something like a torsion, you don't want to mess around. Thinking good thoughts for you!

Last year, I started having belly pain.  It was progressing daily, eventually keeping me up at night.  I went to the ER (only cos my best friend who is also a nurse (nurses don't take care of themselves, just others)made me) and found out I had developed a hiatal hernia.  It's been nicer since I've been eating right again.

 

If it gets worse, go to the ER STAT.  Otherwise, good luck with the GI on Wednesday.

I really pray that you feel better. But stories like yours frighten me so badly. I hate that I had this surgery screw the weight loss. Sorry, this is not about me. I am just filled with grief and fear.

You must have just had your surgery. I think we all went through that stage. I am 8 years out and have not hardly had any issues. I'm not even sure this has anything to do with my surgery. I was just reaching to see if by any chance anyone else has had anything similar. Keep your chin up and remember this to shall pass.

Please don't feel like you need to explain. You have every right to reach out. I am recently out and glad to hear that your well through most of your surgery. I am absurdly selfish to have typed that out :(. I really pray that you feel better.

Don't feel selfish. You are fine. I didn't feel like I needed to explain. I felt like I needed for you to understand what you are going thru is normal. You will not only get to feeling better soon. You will fell better than you ever have as the pounds fall off. You will then be glad you did all of this.  And thank you. I'm sure everything will workout. How far out are you from your surgery, if you don't mind me asking?

Almost two months. Its been so hard, yesterday I contemplated suicide...stared at a handful of ativan pills forever. Then snapped out of it and gave the pills to my sister. She works with in the social services sector and basically said I would have certainly not killed myself with only 30 pills loool. It was the lowest moment in my life. I am seeing a psychologlist and a therapist lol. I don't want to take antidepressants but I suspect I will so have no option. I am tired from being afraid and depressed. I hate my weight loss it's meaningless and I am ashamed of it.
