Hey boys, Last night I may have overeaten too much watermelon. I had a little pain last night but it went away and I was fine this morning, nothing new. Today I made a smoothie with some protein powder, milk, banana, yogrt and flax seed. After that I got these little sharp pains in my upper belly.  So I stayed light for dinner, a string cheese and some quinoa with corn in it. Now I am dying. Pain right under my ribcage and radiating around my back. Kinda feels like I gotta take a **** but higher than it would be. Anyone ever have these? Is it gas? Should I be a little worried?

Right side or left? Do you still have your gallbladder or was it removed already? Either way you know you probably need to give the WLS clinic a phone call just to run it by the nurse or doc.

Tom, Michael has some possible there, But it could also be nothing at all. If you stress the pouch with something It can stay irritated for a few days after. Could just be from a little stress from the watermelon, Of, depending on ‘how it feels’ (which only you know) It could be something else. Keep a close eye on it. If you stay with "light" lower portions for a few days And don’t see remarkable improvement, Give the doc a call. Particularly if pain increases or you have any vomiting or such. Better safe than sorry, but also you don’t want to walk around suspecting the worst, when it could be a simple case Of overeating causing it to be "Fussy." Hope all is back on track soon. Best Wishes- Dx

I also immediatly thought about the gall bladder, sounds to me like a gallstone trying to pass. I have had episodes of up to an hour or more of these lil *******s trying to make theyre way through. Is it more of a chest/upper abdomen like cramp? Thats what i was getting and even still do 10+ yrs after having my gallbladder removed! if it lasts go have it checked out.
