In Need of some Advice...
Can you at least call the surgeon and get him/her access to your medical records so they can review your files? That might be a starting point. I'd also get a passport and be ready to go visit him ASAP.

Could be gall bladder attacks, because they can be triggered by food. Could also be some sort of bacteria in your gut...my sister had e. coli in her gut, and had diarrhea and pain every time she ate. Lasted for months. Don't let this hardheaded doctor make you suffer. You need to be scoped and you need an ultrasound to rule out gallstones, if you haven't had that yet.

REBOOTING! :) Working on losing back down to 160 (beginning Jan. 18, 2015)
I actually did have 2 ultrasounds for my back and belly. Looked for kidney and gall stones and they didn't find anything at all. They even checked my pancreas! Still all the results Said everything looked fine... I secretly was hoping that they would have found something (as bad as that sounds) and was disappointed when they told me everything was fine. Just so confused and struggle everyday to maintain my weight and not get back down to 105. Thank u so much for all the suggestions and support!
