one week down one to go

one week down one to go  I am so nerveous /excited 8/6 i get to reset my life clock and hopefully get rid of my co morbides hangining over my  head.got a question though started developing like a gas pain under my right rib cage and im still only pre op
        
Could be your gallbladder. Have you had a pre-op ultrasound? If you have gallstones often they will remove the gallbladder during the RNY surgery. Ask your doctor.

 Congrats. You could try some gas-x strips, Its what I use and I am a week post op.  Having gas pre-op is not too unusual. At least it wasn't for me. Think about all the stuff you used to eat and now you are eating ultra healthy, your body is reacting to the new way of doing things. Any time I change what I am eating, my body takes a while to adjust and does some funny things for a while. You can talk to your Dr's office and mention it to them and try the gas x and see if that helps to resolve it. 

Best wishes as you move forward
