I am two years post op and have gone to the er twice in two days due to SEVERE left side stomach pain. Yesterday I had ekg and cat scan done which revealed nothing. The doctor told me to make an appointment to see the surgeon that did my sleeve so he can determine if I need a GI done or if this is a common long-term side effect. I am on tramadol and omeprazole. Please share any like experiences. Thanks for all your help.  Sincerely.

Yes, Gwen I was just going to say that.......gallbladder.  Many have theirs removed before the surgery.  I do not believe it has anything to do with her stomach..... the gallbladder may need to be removed.

I had it removed a year before my surgery. The er even checked for kidney stones.

I get sleeved on Monday.  I have about 6 friends that have been sleeved and all of them are past the 2yr mark, not sure what that could be....have they done a scan of that area?
